I'd like to hear from people using to compile parallel programs on the Sequent
Balance 8000.

In a first attempt, I had an error (segmentation fault) while using 
the parallel library. Recompiling the parallel library with gcc did not help.

In case where this problem is solvable, how does the optimizer works with
parallel programs? With the Dynix C-compiler, it is necessary to compile
the parallel programs with the option -i when the optimizer -O is invoked.
How is it with GNU?

Last but not least, is gcc more efficient than the original Dynix compiler?

Thanks for mailing me your answers directly.
