As an aside: -arch:AVX does nothing on 32-bit, as AVX is an exclusively 64-bit CPU instruction set.
I don't agree with this statement.
I disassembled the files built with -arch:AVX and -arch:SSE2 key.They are different and in the files compiled with key -arch:AVX there are AVX instructions. Here is an example, even the palemoon.exe file itself contains AVX processor instructions.
In more complex files, for example gkmedias.dll, the code difference is even more significant.
