<p>Clean native code performs similarly to the <a href="page.php?w=Glasgow_Haskell_Compiler">Glasgow Haskell Compiler</a> (GHC), depending on the benchmark.</p>

<p><big>Compiling</big></p>
<p>Compilation of Clean to <a href="page.php?w=machine_code">machine code</a> is performed as follows:</p>

<p>
# Source files (.icl) and definition files (.dcl) are translated into Core Clean, a basic variant of Clean, by the compiler frontend written in Clean.<br/>
# Core clean is converted into Clean's platform-independent intermediate language (.abc), by the compiler</p><p>
