+ LLVM has great support for interprocedural analysis and optimization.  It 
+ provides standard classes like call graphs, and provides a mature 
+ <a href="docs/AliasAnalysis.html">Alias Analysis Infrastructure</a> as well.  
+ LLVM includes several interprocedural optimizations, including inlining, IP constant 
+ propagation, dead argument elimination, dead global elimination, global 
+ variable constantization, by-ref to by-value argument promotion, etc.

+ LLVM includes a powerful <a href="docs/AliasAnalysis.html">Alias analysis 
+ infrastructure</a>, that makes it easy to experiment with implementation 
+ of new alias analysis algorithms, and compare the results against standard
+ algorithms.  LLVM also includes several alias-analysis-driven optimizations,
+ so that you can see how the precision of your analysis effects actual 
+ running time of the program.

+ LLVM is one of the best documented compilers available.

+ LLVM includes a powerful Just-In-Time compilation system.  You can even 
+ dynamically generate portable LLVM code on the fly and dynamically compile 
+ it to native code, without having to go to LLVM bytecode or assembly.  
+ Consider a raytracer with a programmable shading model: JIT compilation 
+ can speed up shader evaluation by orders of magnitude over interpretation.

+ to pinpoint bugs when they occur, an IR verifier, and <a href="docs/CommandGuide/bugpoint.html">tools
+ to automatically identify and narrow down bugs</a> in arbitrary compiler transformations.

 Did you know that LLVM has a GCC 3.4 compatible C++ front-end and a great 
 optimizer?  We find that LLVM is able to compile C++ into substantially better
