Clang Gets Boosted By The Boost Libraries

,----[ Quote ]
| Clang, the C/Objective-C/C++ compiler front-
| end for the Low-Level Virtual Machine, and 
| LLVM itself have a lot to be proud of lately. 
| LLVM 2.7 was recently released with many new 
| features, LLVM now has its own libstdc++ 
| replacement, and LLVM is finding itself used 
| in many places from a JIT engine in a Flash 
| player to providing software acceleration in 
| Gallium3D. The latest accomplishment for 
| Clang is that the C++ library can now build 
| the Boost libraries.

Clang Successfully Self-Hosts!

,----[ Quote ]
| Today, Clang completed its first complete
| self-host! We built all of LLVM and Clang
| with Clang (over 550k lines of C++ code). The
| resulting binaries passed all of Clang and
| LLVM's regression test suites, and the Clang-
| built Clang could then build all of LLVM and
| Clang again. The third-stage Clang was also
| fully-functional, completing the bootstrap.

Benchmarking LLVM & Clang Against GCC 4.5

,----[ Quote ]
| With the recent release of GCC 4.5 and the
| forthcoming release of LLVM 2.7 that is
| expected in the coming days, we have
| decided to see how the performance of GCC
| compares to that of LLVM. For this testing
| we have results from GCC 4.3/4.4/4.5
| compared to LLVM with its GCC front-end
| (LLVM-GCC) and against Clang, which is the
| native C/C++ compiler front-end for the
| Low-Level Virtual Machine.
