Thank you. What flags you find useful? In general not only for speed.

The only compiler flags I regularly need to use are the
ones to do with compilation for particular Java versions.
These are also known as 'cross-compilation options'
in the docs., they are -target and -bootclasspath.

Occasionally I use the -deprecation flag to find what method
or attribute is used by code I am importing that has been
marked as deprecated, but this is usually unnecessary,
since it often comes down to a call to frame.show()
or similar, that is pretty easy to spot anyway.
