Wow. There are Pentium machines still running out there?

You do know that Pentium optimizations are only for Pentiums and that 
such binaries could actually run slower on anything Pentium-II/Pentium 
Pro and above than i386 (actually i486 optimized binaries iirc - must 
check gcc) optimized binaries due to the architecture differences of the 
Pentium?

Been such a long time since i saw any mention of i586.
