Dot product optimization can be used to achieve more efficient use of the PA-RISC 2.0 architecture, resulting in significant runtime improvements. This optimization is only available at +O3 or +O2 optimization levels. To invoke dot product optimization (also known as sum reduction), you must use the +Onofltacc optimization flag on the command line.
