Opteron build process question
Hi,
Is there anything that I have to do to enable the Postgresql Opteron
optimizations when compiling? Or will it detect the platform and enable
them by default?
We're using RedHat Enterprise Linux for x86_64.

With 7.4.X, it will build with no modifications.

No, because there aren't any.

Hmmm... it says here:
