GCC 4.7 Compiler On Core i7 AVX Sandy Bridge
Testing of GCC 4.6.2 and GCC 4.7 development snapshot (20120107) on latest-generation Intel hardware. Testing from Intel Core i7 3960X Sandy Bridge Extreme Edition CPU under Ubuntu 11.10 x86_64 with the Linux 3.2 kernel. In particular looking towards the Intel Sandy Bridge, Intel Ivy Bridge, and Intel Haswell improvements within GCC compilers for a future article on Phoronix.com under Michael Larabel. Testing with the test profile defaults. Similar LLVM/Clang 3.1 benchmarking is being done too.
