+Kokkos does not automatically add compiler flags to optimize for a specific CPU architecture.
+When compiling on the machine that the code also runs on, the easiest way to get the CPU code optimized is using ``Kokkos_ARCH_NATIVE=ON`` when configuring.
+In case of compiling for another machine, the CPU architecture can be manually specified. For the available architectures see the following list.
