New GNU linker
by hub, Sunday 23 March 2008 at 18:36 :: C++ :: #604 :: rss
A new linker for GNU binutils, gold, targetting ELF, has been announced. It is apparently 5 times faster to run than the regular GNU ld
. It is written in C++, and Tom Tromey praise it for its performance and its coding style.
Off course it is still pre-release and will probably need a lot of testing as well as being ported to new target architectures, as it currently only support i386 and x86_64.
And I actually need to give it a try.
