Hello,

I just saw that in the provided makefile there is no optimization flag specified. For testing purposes I had an almost 8x speedup with -O3.
Is this an oversight or intended?

Sincerely,
Jonas

Dear Jonas,
If a parallel program is tested with optimization flags, the baseline sequential version must also be tested with the same optimizations.
Please note that the goal of this assignment is to introduce parallelism to the existing sequential application.

Thanks for the quick clarification.

I will leave it as is for better comparison of the solutions.
