See gcc --target-help for some system specific flags.

Note that this program wasn't really intended to be a benchmark, but it's a typical piece of code that seems CPU bound enough to provide a good idea of what the CPU can really do. If it reports a final altitude of 0.00m, you're doing it wrong. You should get something like 112317.72m.
