Seeing some of the largest wins in favor of Clang was the NCNN neural network framework developed by Tencent. Though not too surprising given that NCNN is mobile-focused where the Clang compiler tends to be very popular among mobile/embedded ISVs and IHVs.

The TNN deep learning framework meanwhile performed better when built by GCC.
