Jeff Cogswell is Comparing C++ Compilers

Jeff Cogswell wrote an article in Slashdot “Speed Test: Comparing Intel C++, GNU C++, and LLVM Clang Compilers”.

He concluded:

It’s interesting that the code built with the g++ compiler performed the best in most cases, although the clang compiler proved to be the fastest in terms of compilation time. But I wasn’t able to test much regarding the parallel processing with clang, since its Cilk Plus extension aren’t quite ready, and the Threading Building Blocks team hasn’t ported it yet.
