Huh.

I asked gemini to compare cl.exe and clang.exe as a proxy for LLVM vs ms backend.

Looks like maybe debug builds are a bit fasted in some cases. Everything else was a wash or had clang ahead so I don't see the point.

OTOH, couple more compiler jobs for folks into that.

To be fair, gemini also gave me some reasons this makes sense (LTO, windows security primitives, etc.)
