Anyway I would recommend you to experiment with -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2
because most of chess program does some kind of recursive game tree searching
that can be importantly slowed down by stack alignment issues.
Other options you might try are -funroll-loops (that usually helps to such
programs) and enable tunning for your cpu (-mcpu=<cpu>) supports
x86, pentium, pentiumpro and k6.
