    Phoronix: GCC vs. Clang Compiler Performance On NVIDIA Xavier's Carmel ARMv8 Cores

    Since receiving the powerful NVIDIA Jetson AGX Xavier with its ARMv8 Carmel cores on this Tegra194 SoC a while back, it's been quite a fun developer board for benchmarking and various Linux tests. One of the areas I was curious about was whether GCC or Clang would generate faster code for this high performance ARM SoC, so here are some benchmarks.

    Benchmarks are all well & good but the primary reason clang/llvm is used: it's not gpl.

      Why does this matter? The compiler does not affect the license of the compiled program!
