Help text

Cause the compiler to optimize for the PPE of the Cell Broadband Engine. This will make the code run considerably faster on Cell but somewhat slower on other machines. This option only changes the scheduling of instructions, not the selection of instructions itself, so the resulting kernel will keep running on all other machines.
