While having the Supermicro ARS-211M-NR R13SPD server in the lab for AmpereOne benchmarking with the flagship AmpereOne A192-32X processor, I took the opportunity to run some fresh GCC vs. LLVM Clang compiler performance benchmarks on AArch64. Here are those results for that healthy competition between these open-source C/C++ compilers on AmpereOne cores.

The Institute for Development and Resources in Intensive Scientific Computing (IDRIS) , the national centre of the CNRS that hosts more than 1400 projects in both HPC and AI domains, held their fourth consecutive Open Hackathon in a hybrid format to help applications to run at scale on the Jean Zay supercomputing system. The hybrid event saw eight teams with projects ranging from bioinformatics to large language model (LLM) training benefit from dedicated mentor collaboration and community knowledge exchange.
As scheduled, LLVM Clang 19 was branched from mainline Git this morning and is now considered feature frozen ahead of its planned September release. LLVM Clang 20 in turn is now in development with the main Git branch.
