7. Is Clang and the build system setup to automatically target cpu instruction set? i.e. cc -target-cpu corei7-avx? Any performance improvements of targeted binaries?
Nope, because you can't just ship a full list of packages for a full list of processors on the given architecture. You can build your world/packages though adding -march=native to CFLAGS.
10. How is the Java ecosystem on FreeBSD? Is LLVM specific to applications? I make the assumption that the VM in LLVM is referring to something like a JVM, for code abstraction.
No, LLVM is rather a backend with a lot of copmiler and toolchain stuff. There's a Java/.NET rewrite using LLVM named vmkit and I think JVM there is almost functional. But it's not even in the ports.
