fomit-frame-pointer - disallow to store frame pointer in CPU register,
pthread - enable multithreading
  • Pascal :
O2 - second optimization level,
fomit-frame-pointer - disallow to store frame pointer in CPU register
  • Python :
OO - don't store debug information + don't store docstrings
  • Ada :
O2 - second optimization level,
  • C :
O2 - second optimization level,
lm - access to "math.h" library,
fomit-frame-pointer - disallow to store frame pointer in CPU register,
pthread - enable multithreading
  • Scheme :
O0 - entry optimization level
  • Haskell :
O - first optimization level
  • Pascal :
O2 - second optimization level
  • Common Lisp :
dynamic-space-size 48 - amount of space (in MB) dedicated for startup
disable-debugger - disable debugger
  • C99 :
lm - access to "math.h" library,
fomit-frame-pointer - disallow to store frame pointer in CPU register,
pthread - enable multithreading
  • Javascript Rhino :

Is ONLINE_JUDGE actually set properly?

Please look at this question for an example.

Thanks.

You can check yourself, for example by throwing exception if not set :wink: If there is flag missing, please write an e-mail to bugs@codechef.com

I did check and it is ALSO being set for the IDE (which is not what we want).

Sent email to bugs. Thanks.

Also, we can use #ifdef instead, right ?

Rust code is not being compiled with -O as claimed, and this is slowing down Rust submissions dramatically, making Rust unusable for many problems. :frowning:

See Bug report: Rust code is being compiled in debug mode without optimization for reproducible proof. I’ve gotten no response yet from my report to bugs@. (Edit: Actually I got a reasonably quick “we’ll look into this” response that landed in my spam folder, but that’s all so far.)
