>* Are you suggesting that CPython's build system move away from MSVC as the platform compiler for Windows?
Not immediately, I don't think we should give up on the stability that currently exists with the cl based compilation. However, I think once CPython on clang-cl becomes stable, it will be compelling to switch. Clang-cl has the benefit of backwards compatibility with existing MSVC compiled c extensions, while generating a faster interpreter (perhaps 30% faster or more!).
* Are you able to provide a machine to run buildbots on?
I'm afraid not, I am just a college student :) |
