Do you have any facts to substatiate this statement?
The pentium 2, 3, and 4 all support the same core instruction set, the only
difference being sse and sse2. From the qemu point of view a pentuim3/4 is
just a pentium2 with sse/sse2.
Qemu emulates the x86 instruction set. It does not implement the
microarchitecture of a particular implementation. I haven't done any tests,
but I'd expect the performance characteristics of qemu are significantly
different to those of a real CPU.
-Os optimizes for code size, not speed. This may be faster than -O2 in some
cases, but I'd be surprised if that was true in general.
