AMD FX-8150 GCC, LLVM/Clang, Open64 Compilers Testing different open-source Linux compilers and compiler tuning options from an AMD FX-8150 Bulldozer system kit provided by AMD for a future article on Phoronix.com. GCC 4.6, GCC 4.7 (mid-October development snaoshot), AMD Open64 4.2.5.2, Open64 4.2.4, and LLVM/Clang 3.0 SVN were the compilers benchmarked. GCC was built with --enable-release=checking and --enable-lto. LLVM/Clang was built in --enable-optimized and --disable-assertions (Release build) mode. Testing from 64-bit Ubuntu 11.10 on Linux 3.1 kernel with IC aliasing patched system.
