**(Compile_Info.txt)***
This .exe was compiled with ICL 4.5 with the following options in a 3 step process:

1. "nmake -f Makefile.MSVC PROF_OPT=GEN OPT=ULTRA"
2. The created file was then run through some common functions such as encoding and decoding to generate a profile.
3. "nmake -f Makefile.MSVC PROF_OPT=USE OPT=ULTRA"

This creates an .exe which uses profile guided optimization, which seems to allow a slight speed increase (2%-5%).

This .exe should be as fast or perhaps slightly faster than Mitiok's "fast" compiles.

# nmake -f Makefile.MSVC
# -> build lame and dll, but not mp3x
# -> use Robert's code modifications
# -> assume INTEL compiler available 
# -> assume NASM available
# -> assemble MMX code with NASM
# -> optimize for PIII
# -> single file optimizations
# -> no compiler warnings
#
# passing arguments, one can modify the default behaviour:
# COMP=<not INTEL or BCC> -> use MS compiler
# WARN=<anything but OFF> -> give verbose compiler warnings
# VERBOSE_VEC=<anything but OFF> -> give verbose vectorization information for Intel Compiler
# PROF_OPT=<GEN,USE> -> generate or use profile guided optimzations for Intel Compiler
# OPT=<NORMAL,EXTRA,ULTRA> -> different Intel optimizations
# ASM=<anything but YES> -> no NASM nor MMX
# MMX=<anything but YES> -> do not assemble MMX code
# CFG=<anything but RH> -> disable Robert's modifications
# OGG=<anything> -> have Vorbis library, use it
# CPU=P1 -> optimize for Pentium instead of P II/III
# GTK=YES -> have GTK, adds mp3x to default targets
#
# Example:
# nmake -f Makefile.MSVC CPU=P1 GTK=YES
