Clear Linux: A cloud distro for Intel processors

Compiler Optimization
Support for the function multiversioning (FMV) compiler option offers further optimization potential for the various Intel architectures; this option lets you build code for multiple platforms and then let the software opt at runtime to harness, for example, the AVX2 plugin for enhanced vector computation [11] on a system with a "Haswell" CPU. FMV usually means speed gains for applications that are still not optimized for multiple command sets.
A telemetry function collects information about error events on the system, but it does not collect any that could be traced back to users. The function can be disabled, if necessary, or you can set it up on your own system. You can download the operating system from the project server, but note that it is exclusively available for the IA64 architecture as a live image, an installer, a KVM image, or in Intel's own container format.
