Replace "-ox" with "-otexan", which, of course, is
short for "-ot
-oe -ox -oa -on".  And it doesn't really make a difference what
order you specify the options in, "texan" is just easier to
remember, than, say "xntae".  Note that this optimizes for _speed_,
not size.

Look in the C/C++ Users Guide (CGUIDE.INF) in the Watcom online docs
for a section entitled "Benchmarking Hints".
