A new version of the NDK was released:
We should upgrade our NDK version to r11 and move away from GCC 4.9 to Clang: http://developer.android.com/ndk/downloads/index.html

I think #2095 is a pre-requisite of this, since it would allow us to measure the impact of the change

I agree it would be nice to be able to measure any performance regressions, but since GCC is now deprecated we have to move eventually.

If the performance loss is considerable we don't need to use the latest NDK

Well, if GCC is deprecated we have to move eventually, but you are right, we don't have to migrate now.

Some interesting info about the differences between GCC and Clang: android/ndk#26 (comment)

It definitely sounds like we need to get some metrics in place (size / performance) before switching.

Folding this into #3506
