The only downside I've heard about LLVM is that its slow. Like GCC & friends weren't. But I think a lot GCC slowness is inherited from binutils and that's probably the same for CLang/LLVM. That's one of the reasons that FPC has been struggling to build internal replacements for the binutils suite. Still have to use binutils on many platforms. -- Sent from my Debian Linux workstation -- http://www.debian.org/intro/about Jon Foster JF Possibilities, Inc. j...@jfpossibilities.com
