In my own personal experience, clang is about 500% faster then GCC on
my Ubuntu system with identical highly templated Boost code, but then
I have GCC 4.4 installed as well, GCC 4.5 is a *lot* faster in many
cases then 4.4.  GCC in general does still produce faster code then
clang though, so it is a trade-off.
