LAM generally doesn't see much speedup from one optimization level to
another - it just doesn't have much that a compiler can work with. So
the real question is what will help your application out. Apple has a
couple of pages up on optimizing applications for the G5, some of which
include information on the XL compilers. You might want to have a look
at their developer pages for more information:

gcc/g++, from the Developer Tools.
Hope this helps!
