-Os is the same as -O2 minus some optimizations that increase footprint.

-O3 mostly adds more serious footprint increasing optimizations like loop unrolling. I've seen a number of warnings that suggest in some cases the larger code can reduce performance, so you may be best off with -O2 or -Os for best performance.
