I have been using an compiler-optimized version of qemu for several weeks now
on an x86 with much success. Qemu has not crashed one single time and I have
seen a noticeable performance increase. What I have done is added
"-finline-functions -funroll-loops" to the CFLAGS, but I made sure that it
would not be added to OP_CFLAGS. This ensures that every file is compiled
with the optimizations *except* op.c, which should not have these flags. If
op.c is compiled with these flags, crashes will be too often to make it
usable. So the actual processor emulation may not be optimized any more, but
all of the peripherals and hardware emulators will be. Simply install the
patch and then configure with '--enable-x86-optimize'.
