Muzo: it seems that the source for this program is readily available. Do I get this option with any Adobe, Microsoft or any other ISV app ? You need to read the rest of my post. I still believe that a vast majority of ISVs ship "blend" compiled apps with minor optimizations.

My point was simply that one need not nearly go as far as to optimize for each and every processor (and thus ship multiple binaries, which increases exponentially increases the amount of support and debugging that needs to be done). Quite significant gains can be made just by optimizing for the most prevalent core, the P6.
