Not a nightmare. It's just that compilers are complex. cross-compiler
even more so.

Not nonsense. You just have a super-fast cross-compiler that generates
the same code as a regular one!

It depends what you are trying to achieve. If it's just a few % extra
speed, try -Os or -O2/-O3. I think the manual says they optimise for
minimum code size or maximum speed without/with large increases in
compile time and code size, respectively.
Beyond telling the compiler the instruction set it can use, which
should correspond to the silicon in your target device, there is only
a few % speed to be had by juggling with magic options, and which help
and which make it worse or produce non-working code depend on the
specific program you are compiling.
