another question that leaps to my mind...
if the compiler benchmarks yield such different performances,
how can you tell theres actually a fault in the driver, and not a fault in the compiler, which made the driver?
would it make a difference if one would make a driver compiled with gcc 4.6 and another attempt with 4.3 and a third with llvm for instance (if possible).
i just wonder if it is influenced by it, and if the compilers are really to be relied on. (anologously concerning compiler optimisation levels)
