Over in bug 1253064 I'm proposing switching developer builds to prefer Clang over GCC because the limited numbers we have say that Clang can build mozilla-central several minutes faster than GCC (13 minutes vs 17.5 on my I7-6700K). I'm not proposing switching what we use to produce builds in automation. I'm not proposing dropping GCC support. This is all about choosing faster defaults so people don't spend as much time waiting for builds to complete and become more productive as a result.
Please comment on the bug if you have something to add. _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
