OpenWatcom optimizes by default for a balance between size and speed (good).

For DJGPP, if you really want speed, use -O3 -march=native (or -mtune=generic). For size, use -Os -fomit-frame-pointer -march=i386 (and check CRT0.H for stuff to disable).

Blame "real life" (tm) for getting in the way. :-|

Well, I could write all my sed scripts in GNU sed, but that's incompatible with (much) older variants: CSED or SEDMOD or HHSED (but which are much smaller, much faster). Usually, I find a way to make it work in all of 'em. (What does bash v3 offer that's so great, anyways? Arrays??)
