Anyone else enjoying the fact that Intel has their own C compiler, you know, icc; and yet this super optimized Linux distro they're touting is compiled with gcc?

And the way GCC handles FMV it doesn't actually to require an specific CPU architecture but just the extensions so your CFLAGS can stay generic enough to run well on most CPU

Good work in developing a fully-open sourced system that actually optimizes for modern CPU hardware.
It's amusing how people run obsolete software on a modern system and complain about how it's not that much faster so the CPU must be to blame.
The exact same people would never in a million years whine about how a new GPU isn't any faster when using 3 year old drivers that aren't designed for the new hardware, but when it comes to CPUs they act like optimizing for a new architecture shouldn't be allowed, even though it's generally much easier than writing a massive new driver for a GPU.

Phoronix: Clear Linux & Their Love For FMV + dl_platform/dl_hwcap In The Name Of Performance
For those mesmerized by the numbers whenever posting a cross-distribution comparison like the recent Core i9 7900X vs. Threadripper 1950X On Ubuntu 17.10, Antergos, Clear Linux with showing Intel's performance optimizations done on Clear Linux, Intel engineer Victor Rodriguez presented this week at the 2017 Open-Source Summit North America about some of their Linux performance boosting work...
