cgcccompiler-optimization

Which free C compiler gives options for greater optimizations?


Can you please give me some comparison between C compilers especially with respect to optimization?


Solution

  • Actually there aren't many free compilers around. gcc is "the" free compiler and probably one of the best when it comes to optimisation, even when compared to proprietary compilers.

    Some independent benchmarks are linked from here: http://gcc.gnu.org/benchmarks/
