I used Gentoo for 3y. in hindsight I wasted so many CPU cycles just because I thought --march=native would make things faster.
nope.
you know what made things faster? switching to arch 😂
When CPUs were a lot slower you could genuinely get noticeable performance improvements by compiling packages yourself, but nowadays the overhead from running pre-compiled binaries is negligible.
Hell, even Gentoo optionally offers binary packages now.
