[LLVMdev] Some blogged LLVM experience.

[Michael T. Richter]

http://snakeratpig.blogspot.com/2008/02/alternative-compiler-suites.html

Executive summary:  LLVM-GCC was consistently faster and its output
consistently faster than plain old GCC when compiling and using Ruby
1.9.  Both compilers failed spectacularly on the full regression suite,
but GCC lasted longer and did more tests before exploding.

If I could find a comprehensive Erlang testing suite, I'd blog those
results as well.  I have been using LLVMed Erlang for two months now,
however, with no ill effects noted and a "feel" that it is snappier.

Good work.  LLVM rocks.

We should sell bloat credits, the way the government sells pollution
credits. Everybody's assigned a certain amount of bloat, and if they go
over, they have to purchase bloat credits from some other group that's
been more careful. (Bent Hagemark)
