I switched completely over to gcc 4.x before it when stable in the tree, it started producing better binaries for most applications than gcc 3.4 faster just a little before 4.1.0 came out. I believe there's still at least one package that doesn't build with gcc 4.x (kqemu), so there's some reason to still stay on 3.4 if you are cautious. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =.

[gentoo-user] gcc 3.4.6 vs. 4.1.1
All of my gentoo systems have both gcc 3.4 and 4.1 but still use 3.4 for everything except packages that just won't build with gcc 3.4. I'm curious what other people are doing. Have most people switched over to 4.1 as their "main" compiler? -- Grant Edwards grante Yow!
