Has anyone been looking into building Fedora with it to see how the
performance impact is?
I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that the dominating factor in
our performance is the code itself.
I meant performance, primarily in terms of speed of compilation. Not the
code itself.
Suppose it's faster. Say even by a factor of 100. So what? What
problem would that solve?
Personally I don't that compile speed is as interesting as new bugs the
compiler is able to highlight, either through the compilation process or
through the use of LLVM as a static analyzer.
But LLVM/clang is quite far away from building Fedora, so I do not think
there's a need for people to get anxious.
I worked for a couple weeks on fixing LLVM, clang and Linux kernel bugs
so that the kernel would build under clang.
