Parent article: Things that go Clang in the night: LLVM 2.4 released (ars technica)

Please read the comment to which you are replying. The article is about something called "Clang" that is to replace the GCC-based front end to LLVM. You are apparently not using "Clang" because your command line begins with "llvm-gcc". So what you are hyping is not actually what the article was about.

Please read the article, the article is about the llvm 2.4 release. Clang is an in development sub-project of that. I am quite aware that I am using llvm-gcc and not clang. But neither the complaint about the hype (and implication that it is thus not worth looking at) nor the original article are about Clang, they are about llvm. The ability to do IPO on large projects with llvm is not dependent on the C frontent (clang or llvm-gcc) you are using.

Funny, "Clang" is the 4th word in the title of said article.
