The stock SR9 compilers have some problems on the 020's - I've found bugs in the floating point department, and could easily believe they might miss some optimisations for the DN330's. (The easy way to check is to try "/bin/cc kloo.c -M330" - if it doesn't work you're running old compilers). We got our hardware upgrades several weeks ago but had to nag the field office for the compiler upgrades. -------
