Just a quick note....

I just spent a couple of days porting my entire project to soft-float...

On my ARM platform, this appears to result in a speed increase of about 
10 - 20%; some things like flash generation appear to be about twice as 
fast...

Nothing special had to be done to the code; just rebuilding the 
toolchain, all libs, kernel, etc, and modifying the various build files 
to include -msoft-float....

We do quite a bit of floating point calcs, in flash generation and 
javascript, so if you don't YMMV...
