-mdynamic-no-pic is not supported for x86_64 (it is silently ignored), which is why you don't get an error. Performance gains are probably illusory, and you would get it without -mdynamic-no-pic.
Under i386 you are attempting to link -mdynamic-no-pic code into a shared library, which is not supported. Don't do that.
