-O3: Switches on data reordering (-RD and -rt 0), loop-unrolling (-lu), more aggressive
function optimization (-see 1 and -vro), and employs more aggressive inlining (-lro and
-isf 12). This set provides an aggressive but still stable set of optimizations that are
beneficial for many benchmarks and applications.
-O4: Essentially turns on more aggressive inlining (-sidf 50, -ihf 20, and -shci 90). As a
result, the number of branches is reduced, but at the cost of increasing code footprint. This
option works well with large i-caches or with small to medium programs/threads.
