I'm using ICC for programs where I have numbers about performance; for 
example, bzip2 is 30% faster here when compiled with ICC.

However, one thing I don't like about ICC is that when you post in the 
Intel forums about a problem you have on Gentoo, the reply is "Gentoo is 
not supported, please use RedHat."  If Gentoo is going to "support" ICC, 
ICC should be supporting Gentoo as well.
