PathScale
PATHSCALE COMPILER SUITE FOR AMD64 and EM64T
PathScale's goal is to make it easier to develop and deploy 64-bit applications into clustered environments. PathScale has developed the industry's highest-performance C, C++, and Fortran 9X compilers for 64-bit Linux-based computer systems. The PathScale Compiler Suite shares its heritage with the well-known and mature SGI compiler suite. The PathScale Compiler Suite has been optimized for both the AMD64 and EM64T architectures and has the world's most sophisticated optimization infrastructure. It provides superior performance across both floating-point and integer-intensive applications. Application developers targeting 64-bit Linux servers will see immediate performance benefits from compiling with the PathScale compilers.
The PathScale Compiler Suite includes:
- C, C++, and Fortran 77/90/95 compilers
- Industry leading optimizations
- Complete support for OpenMP 2.0 (including WORKSHARE)
- Complete support for 64-bit and 32-bit x86 compilation
- Code generation for AMD64 ABI, AMD Opteron, and Intel EM64T
- QLogic optimized AMD Core Math Library (available for download)
- New advanced serial debugger — Pathdb
- Compatible with GNU/gcc tool chain and popular Third Party debuggers
- Supported on SuSE, RedHat, and Fedora Linux

MAXIMIZING APPLICATION PERFORMANCE THROUGH INTER-PROCEDURAL OPTIMIZATION WITH THE PATHSCALE COMPILER SUITE
Experience up to 40% performance improvement with the PathScale Compiler Suite — See the performance results.
The PathScale compilers provide 100% binary compatibility, with the ability to mix and match the linking of GNU and PathScale-compiled libraries and objects. The front-ends are source compatible with the GNU compiler suite for C/C++. The FORTRAN 95 compiler provides support for the most common Cray/SGI extensions.
