Hi!

Thanks for the suggestions. Yes, it is true that I might be comparing
apples to pears :-) but what if gcc actually was just as fast as clang? ;-)
Anyway, I am now trying to set up clang in QtCreator. Since 4.8.0 (I think)
there are mkspecs for clang - although unsupported - but when compiling,
QtCreator cannot find clang++ :-/ And I cannot find it on my system. Maybe
it is because I still have Xcode 3.2.6 installed!? Hmmm - it seems like I
need to upgrade to Xcode 4 in order to get clang++ :-/

Cheers,
Bo
