New FreeBSD 10.0-CURRENT buildbot

Afternoon (UTC+10), I'd like to request a new user/pass for a FreeBSD 10.0-CURRENT VM guest I've just setup as a dedicated buildbot slave to complement my other koobs-freebsd slaves. Also, with this and future additions to the FreeBSD buildslave set in mind, I think it might also be prudent for a rename to take place: koobs-freebsd9-amd64 koobs-freebsd9-amd64-clang (CC=clang) koobs-freebsd10-amd64 (clang is default here) Convention being: koobs-freebsdX[Y]-arch[-config] (Happy for feedback here) If there are any permutations or additions you'd like to specifically see for FreeBSD to increase coverage just let me know (Hint: I have a PandaBoard arm board here i'm getting up and running) I have ZFS & DTrace to work with among other things, and the long term plan is to have FreeBSD buildbots running the full gamut of versions, from -RELEASE through -STABLE to HEAD branches. I'm on #python-dev IRC if someone needs to discuss. -- Regards, Koobs

Does CPython code compiled with clang runs faster than gcc? Why did you chose clang? Any benchmarks? Any benefits?

Clang is sometimes favored over gcc for its non-GPL license; I believe the FreeBSD project sees this as an important issue. In general, the more C compilers a piece of C code compiles on, the fewer bugs are left in it, because different C compilers tend to catch different problems - even with cranked up warnings.

If there are any permutations or additions you'd like to specifically see for FreeBSD to increase coverage just let me know (Hint: I have a PandaBoard arm board here i'm getting up and running)
