ok, so because there are no published benchmarks of SunStudio 10 C++ vs. GCC4 C++, let's just assume GCC4 is faster, with no data to back up that assumption. past performance notwithstanding. > of cause not... > still, when you have a chance, could you please pass linking error here > to discuss/verify? i have not spent time doing this test since 2002. there is sufficient and more recent information to this effect on the kde-solaris list (people trying to build KDE with SunStudio against GCC built QT by mistake), with predictable results. > sure, some software uses gcc-izms, so that's a known fact. How is this > related to gcc vs. studio performance problem? if we agree that Sun Studio has better performance, it would make sense to build everything with Sun Studio, as opposed to taking the Big Compiler Mish-Mash approach. IMHO. if you disagree, we could throw in the Centerline and EDG compilers in the mix, let's see what comes out. --Stefan -- Stefan Teleman [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
