AMD FX-8350 Open64 bdver2 Compiler Tuning

AMD FX-8350 Piledriver Eight-Core processor running Ubuntu 12.10 with the Linux 3.5 kernel while testing the latest AMD Open64 compiler at the time of the 2012 FX Vishera CPU Launch. Benchmarking by Michael Larabel of Phoronix for a future article looking at AMD Piledriver compiler tuning with -march=bdver2 relative to -march=bdver1 and other AMD x86-64 CPU micro-architecture targets for the AMD Open64 compiler.
