General Setup

1. Follow the Gentoo Handbook for installing Gentoo

   Gentoo Handbook

2. Install LLVM/Clang (Optional)

   Clang is a faster compiler than the default GCC. It produces binary as fast, or faster than GCC. To set up clang,

   run emerge llvm clang

   and add these to lines to the top of your /etc/make.conf file

    CC=/usr/bin/clang
    CXX=/usr/bin/clang++
   

   If a package fails to compile with clang, you can comment out those lines, and recompile the package with GCC.
