Comment (by george.gayno@…):

 One final test of the impact of switching from "-O0" to "-O3" for the Cray
 build (done at r96596, see comment:8).  A uniform C768 grid was tested and
 the raw orography fields were checked.

 Timing: The "-O3" orography generation test ran in 4:51, and the "-O0"
 test ran in 9:43.

 Differences in the raw orography were confined to the center row and
 column of each tile.  Some tiles had differences along a tile edge.  The
 max/min differences for each tile were:
 * Tile 1, minus 15 to 9 meters
 * Tile 2, minus 12 to 9 meters
 * Tile 3, minus 1.5 to 2.5 meters
 * Tile 4, minus 5 to 5 meters
 * Tile 5, minus 8 to 6 meters
 * Tile 6, minus 0.9 to 1.8 meters

 A graphic to follow.
