'''beagleboardXM specific'''<br />
<blockquote>[http://beagleboard.org/hardware-xM beagleboardXM hardware page]</blockquote><br />
Goals for each release:
<b><font style="font-size:120%"> ==[0.1 ] Optimize and run a benchmark program specifically designed to make use of <code>glibc</code></font></b>===
Any packages compiled for the beagleboards can be installed without optimization. So far, in the case of <code>cdot-beagleXM-0-3</code> packages are compiled without it. Without optimizations, software installed in a system can only run on optimal performance. In order to make use of ARMv7 architecture features, editing the <code>CFLAGS</code> to use <code>arm</code> optimization options will let the compiler attempt to improve the performance and/or code size of the program; resulting in a more efficient/faster system.
<b><font style="font-size:120%"> ==[0.2 ] Install an armv7 glibc and re-run the benchmark using dhrystone</font></b>===
