Project Details
Find a set of compiler flags that creates smaller and more efficient binaries for Pidora, compared to the current compiler flags.
A set of packages will be selected for testing, to cover a range of dependencies and use cases, such as common utilities, libraries, and GUI tools.
The packages will be built in a Mock environment on an ARMv6 machine.

Goals by Release
Goals for each release and plans for reaching those goals:
* 0.1
Option A:
- Choose a set of packages to use for the duration of this project.
- Find combinations of compiler flags that reduce the binary size compared to the current flags
Option B:
- Choose a set of packages to optimize
- Find a set of compiler flags that provide the best binary size and performance optimizations for those packages
* 0.2
Option A:
- Test the compiler flag combinations found in 0.1 for performance to determine most optimal flags
Option B:
- Using the compiler flags from 0.1, test against a variety of other packages to prove optimization
* 0.3
- Modify .rpmmacros file and submit for approval
