Unrelated to this thread, it would be great for this web page to get updated. You may find it to be "a better-supported point of view", but it is also comparing against clang 3.2, which is from the end of 2012, and a lot has changed since then.
Like a lot has changed since the GCC 4.2 version used in
http://clang.llvm.org/diagnostics.html :-)
(I'm glad the page acknowledges it uses that version now, thanks to
whoever did that!)
Ask them about the Fortran performance.
Cray, Inc. doesn't have any problem to include gfortran with their
latest supercomputing offerings as one of the three supported compilers
(their own, Intel's, and GNU).
ECMWF [1] just bought one and is installing it.
