[llvm-dev] LLD status update and performance chart
What is the current status of lld on the Mach-O darwin side of things? Has the lld code-base effectively forked for that platform from the ELF ones? I don't see many commits on the Mach-O side of things these days. Is Apple looking at a different solution than lld for their next linker? If so, that would be an odd decision considering how Xcode is replacing all of their other binaries (e.g. llvm-otool, etc) with those from the llvm code base. Jack
