C Compilers which use full 486 capabilities

I am forwarding this request for a University organization which does
not have access to the net.


They have an urgent need for a C compiler which uses all of the
speed features of the '486 chip for a vision processing application.


Do you know of any? Are any at the beta test stage? Where can they
be accessed?


If this is not interesting to the net, please reply directly.


Thanks

[It is my impression that optimizations for the 486 are in most cases the
same ones that you'd do for the 386. There are a few places on the 486
where you can avoid pipeline stalls by reordering instructions, and a few
instructions that are relatively faster or slower, other than that anything
you'd do for a 386 applies equally. -John]
