Hello everybody!
Is it harmful to change FreeBSD's default compiler (to gcc48 for example) and then build and install new kernel and make all set of necessary ports (excluding dconf)? And is there some risk when I build some ports (dconf, nvidia-driver) with default gcc42? Is there probability of conflict/incompatibility between ports compiled with different compilers?
And is there real benefit to meddle with system compiler? As I understood using newer gcc compiler can give me some performance increase? And if so is that benefit so considerable to start all this study?
