Used all of these three. I don't want to even look at MS Visual C/C++ ecosystem.

Why are clang and gcc the wrong way around?

[–] AapoL@sopuli.xyz 54 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I'm a gcc user partly because of the optimization. I mean it's a pretty small difference. But still for scientific stuff gcc is slightly better I think. There's not much difference though and it basically comes to personal preference.

I am in full agreement. My comment was purely for spiciness. How dare you respond with rational and agreeable points. Good day sir!

I haven't dealt with HPC in a while, but Intel C compiler against MKL libraries were fastest CPU, and Nvidia CUDA was slightly easier to develop than OpenCL for other cards. I'm not sure if the situation's changed.

For my current applications, I use NumPy compiled against Intel MKV installed as a binary. It works great.

For not that performance intensive stuff I would use clang though.
