Journal lithron's Journal: recompiling perl 5.8.7 1

Journal by lithron

I compiled perl v5.8.7 under Cygwin. It was mostly painless.

I changed the build.sh script to use -Os instead of -O3. Booyah! Now I have a "small" perl and "small" libraries that load quicker and don't cause me to swap ram to disk.

Now I get to do this all over again tomorrow on my work computer. Yay.

  • does this, or would this have any effect if you were to use any of the Perl backend (B) libraries to use perlcc in the making of fully compiled perl programs?

    i'm wondering if doing that would mean a smaller binary as an end result. i dunno... that was just the first question that came to mind.
