Just wonder if you have done any benchmarks to support this claim.
Even if you compile everything from sources with higher optimization
flags does not guarantee that the generated codes will run faster --
there are just too many factors that can affect the runtime efficiency.
Also I think DB server tends to be I/O bound and you will have better
luck tuning the I/O subsystem than, say, compiling the whole system.
