For 1.1 release, we have included a binary that is built natively. The binary is in the tar file orc-1.1.0.native.tgz. This compiler, although built -O0, still outperforms that of a cross built compiler running on an Itanium machine. This binary have not been tested as thoroughly as the cross built compiler. For 2.0 release, we have included an optimized built compiler (-O2 with all internal consistency checks removed, except that WOPT.so and BE.so are built at -O0). The binary is in the tar file orc-2.0-bin.tar.gz You should see large compile time improvement from this compiler.
