Oh I see now. Would be great if they could be compared fairly.

In the original repository tcc is even faster - check the final 
conclusion in Readme. I think GCC and LLVM have a lot of 
optimizations inside. To do them, probably they have to parse 
code with some extra logic and internal magic.

It's still new enough. In the future, let us know about blog posts so one of us 
can submit them to HN. (HN frowns on the author submitting them.)

In fact, we can have an `excellent article` section on the forum.
`Copy and paste` the excellent article links to it. At the same 
time, adding the `tag` filtering for good indexing ,everything in 
forum .no need other websites.

I don't have an HN account, so I can never submit anything 
whether it's mine or not. I'll make more noise here in the future.

I could have sworn it was announced here already. I don't know where I 
read about it being posted, maybe on discord?

In any case, yeah, just post here, things posted here usually make their 
way to reddit and HN.
