Enables optimizations for speed. This is the generally recommended
optimization level. This option also enables:

Generates code for processors that support Intel(R) Advanced Vector Extensions 2 (Intel(R) AVX2), Intel(R) AVX, SSE4.2, SSE4.1, SSE3, SSE2, SSE, and SSSE3 instructions.
Code is optimized for Intel(R) processors with support for AVX2 instructions. The resulting code may contain unconditional use of features that are not supported on other processors. This option also enables new optimizations in addition to Intel processor-specific optimizations including advanced data layout and code restructuring optimizations to improve memory accesses for Intel processors.
Do not use this option if you are executing a program on a processor that is not an Intel processor. If you use this option on a non-compatible processor to compile the main program (in Fortran) or the function main() in C/C++, the program will display a fatal run-time error if they are executed on unsupported processors.

This section contains descriptions of flags that were included implicitly by other flags, but which do not have a permanent home at SPEC.
Enables optimizations for speed and disables some optimizations that increase code size and affect speed.
To limit code size, this option:
The O1 option may improve performance for applications with very large code size, many branches, and execution time not dominated by code within loops.
-O1 sets the following options:Tells the compiler the maximum number of times to unroll loops. For example -funroll-loops0 would disable unrolling of loops.
-fno-builtin disables inline expansion for all intrinsic functions.
This option trades off floating-point precision for speed by removing the restriction to conform to the IEEE standard.
EBP is used as a general-purpose register in optimizations.
Places each function in its own COMDAT section.
Flushes denormal results to zero.
