GCC or Sun Studio for great UltraSPARC performance
Tuesday Jan 02, 2007
For performance and solid good code we get the best results from using the full Sun Studio, but Sun offers GCC for SPARC Systems (Solaris-based UltraSPARC). Fore more info see:

Developers are telling us they REALLY like to have the frontend (gcc) that they are accustomed too on Linux available with Sun's optimizing compiler-backend.
This is a pretty cool stepping stone for those who are unable to immediately take advantage of Sun Studio from front to back.
