LLVM/Clang did poorly with the GraphicsMagick tests due to lacking OpenMP support. For some of the GraphicsMagick results the DragonEgg plug-in for GCC proved to be an advantage, but the rest of the time the tried-and-tested GNU Compiler Collection did the best.

GCC tended to do well overall for Himeno. The LLVM/DragonEgg 3.0 result was the worst, but for DragonEgg 3.1 the situation is improved so it is in line with the Clang and GCC 4.7/4.8 results.
