I made a non-scientific benchmark on my laptop with my project. Although jumping from -O2 to -Ofast giving me dramatic speed boost, it's interesting to see that going from gcc-4.9 to clang-3.9, there's no difference, just margin of error. The test is non-scientific, I worked on my PC at midday on raw pictures, lots of programs open, but still, those readings almost identical.
My verdict is there's no reason to introduce clang into my Docker build, because doesn't make any speed difference. Going from -O2 to -Ofast makes. 290-310req/s vs 380-450 req/s. 2016-07-08 15:22 GMT+02:00 Lantos István <kerozin....@gmail.com>: > Thank You! > > 2016-07-08 15:20 GMT+02:00 Valentin V.
