You didn't answer why you think that it's important to use -O2 instead of -Os.

The reason why it's using -Os instead of -O2 was probably because the 
maintainers of the Android port thought that optimising for size was 
important, for some reason, on ARM (see also the use of Thumb). That way, 
binaries would be smaller.
