Hi TI Experts,

Please let me confirm the following question.

Would you please provide the ARM Compiler performance comparison data of TI, GNU and ARM standard?

    TI has never published such a comparison.

    A related fact worth noting ... The TI ARM compiler does not support all the variants of the ARM CPU.  For example, among the Cortex-A variants, the highest one supported is Cortex-A8.  While is it possible to run code built for Cortex-A8 on a higher variant like Cortex-A15, no instructions new with Cortex-A15 are used, and thus performance is probably less than optimal.  

    Thanks and regards,
