Apple claims that the Clang parser is 3x faster than GCC for debug builds whilst maintaining compatibility with GCC. It uses the Clang frontend and LLVM backend optimizer and code generator. And at each optimization level GCC now beats Clang by 17%. GCC more than reverses Clang's former superiority. Good, but at each optimization level GCC's 619 build is more than twice as fast as its 301.

He told me that i need to run the compiler first in gcc. Im trying to run a model written by my friend to simulate some experimental data i measured.

Ravalon's link is not much good, since you'll have to do a lot of hunting to. It can run all tools that Unix/Linux can run, although since it's Unix clone, it's a bit modified and often Linux programs need to be modified to compile on Mac OS X. Mac OS X is indeed a POSIX operating system, built on top of FreeBSD, which is a Unix clone. Alright, a little bit of information here.And just to clear the air, I would rather not install Boot Camp just to use a c++ compiler. Does anyone know a good c++ compiler equivalent for MinGW on Mac OSX (10.4x)? I just started a class that requires the use of MinGW, but since it's native windows I obviously can't use it.
