[Mono-list] Optimization

[Edward Ned Harvey (mono)]

I understand that there exist compile-time optimizations, and JIT optimizations.
I understand that the compiled byte-code is platform agnostic.  But my question is...

Is there any performance optimization impact caused by compiling on a different platform?  For example, it's very easy for me to imagine that MS might compile to byte code that contained optimizations that only improve performance on .NET.  It's very easy for me to imagine that the mono compiler would result in *different* optimizations, which may be better, worse, or sometimes better and sometimes worse.

Thanks...
