Which optimization for different CPUs?

Which optimization for different CPUs?

[Jens Benecke]

Hi,

I have several servers and workstations. What optimization level in the
kernel configuration is the maximum possible if I want to use the same
kernel 

- on a Duron-650, a Celeron-1000, and a Celeron-2600?  (servers)
- additionally on a K6-3D 400 and a K6-2 350?
  (do I *have* to go down to CONFIG_M586 or does P2 or P-MMX work?)

- on a P3-700, an Athon XP 2400, and a P4-1800+? (workstations)


Thank you!

Try CONFIG_M686.
