How big are the binaries? ICC inlines a lot more heavily, it's possible (I've seen it before) the code size has bloated, not fitting into the IC...

Having said that, most of ICC's general gains over GCC and LLVM are due to the much faster maths libraries (even more so on Linux), and that doesn't look like that would be useful for these tests...

Yep, ICC's output is much bigger:

  clang 29K
  gcc 36K
  icc 89K
