I *definitely* do not want to see dropping support for everything that<br>
doesn&#39;t do SSE2 (which was discussed in the Fedora thread you linked).<br></blockquote><div><br>I read the <a href="https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/F12X86Support">https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/F12X86Support</a>. IMHO optimizing for some ATOM specific CPU get 1% improvement, IMHO those are peanuts and not worthwhile to change anything at cost of loosing compatibility. ATOM and distro and applications running on ATOMs needs much much more boosts (BTW, I&#39;ve ATOM 450 and I run directly the 64bit 2010.1 distro on it, so should be SSE2 optimzed at source, and IMHO it is still underpowered for plain tasks).<br>
