Can you explain this because the article says:
It is rolling out with Chrome M85 on Mac and Windows.
Never mind. This [1] says:
Starting in Chrome 53, Chrome has started using
Microsoft’s Profile Guided Optimization (PGO)
technology to make Chrome up to 15% faster
on Windows.
This strongly implies Google was using MSVC for the M53 build.

- 1f60c 6y agoFrom the article: "PGO was initially introduced in M53 for Chrome on Windows using Microsoft Visual C++ (MSVC) […] In M85, we are rolling out PGO on Mac and Windows using Clang." So it sounds like they've been using PGO for a while using MSVC, and now they've started using PGO with Clang.
