Hi Brian:
I built Perl with HP's performance C compiler since I've seen gcc on quite
a few occasions produce considerably slower binaries for the HPPA. We
already have enough performance problems with Perl as it is :) Our system
administrator team built 5.005_03 with this compiler, so I know
No - all my problems went away when I started using the GCC fro everything :-).
The rarer problems I have now are with some non GCC compiled code, or code that isnt
compiled position independent. Lots of pointers to problems like this on the HP
compiler mailing lists.
Cheers.

OK - some more evidence - look on google for pointers towards problems with thread
local storage and HP compilers ( TLS ) - these are also a source of pain for me ( in
particular with linking in the oracle client libraries for instance ).
Cheers.
