Not sure if I understand you right here: You want to know if and how --enable-optimize works?

Yes, it does work. And it does simply tell your compiler to use the -O2 flag when compiling the source. This means it will try to produce optimized code up to a certain level (therefor the "2").
More detailed information can be found here: http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-3.4.4/gcc/Optimize-Options.html#Optimize-Options

Well, it will probably make aMule use slightly less cpu time.

It will almost certainly not improve the rate at which you download or upload files with aMule.  That is limited by network I/O between you and other clients, not by your cpu.

Another question.......... and the --enable-optimise option?

The help say that it is deprecated, it means that make amule instable?

No, "--enable-optimize" and "--enable-optimise" are exactly the same, just with different spellings.  To avoid confusion, we've decided to eliminate the duplication and standardize on the spelling with 'z'.  Deprecated just means "the old way, which we will someday eliminate, so plan to stop using it soon".  :)
