In five years Firefox will be so niche you won't remember it. Why? Corporations I'm running across on the internet, like Schedulicity and more already have announced denying future support for Firefox and request people switch to Chrome or Safari. This came a day after Microsoft announced ending Edge and building a custom Chrome for Windows.
Pretty soon Firefox will go the way of Opera.

I have come code that segment issues if built with CLANG, and does not have then if built with gcc.
I also encounter the reverse. Clang based compile crashes and gcc does not.
Regarding sizes. The differences between clang or gcc is 100 or so bytes. I cannot judge which of the two produces faster executing code.

I tried to get some real data about performance built with recent GCC and Clang with LTO+PGO. You can also download the binary and test it yourself. Seems to me that GCC wins especially in code size and performance. Clang has edge in compile time and memory use.
