Also remember, you have to write very advanced code before the choice of compiler matters that much.

You can buy/license the ARM compilers (RVCT) from ARM's RealView distributors: http://www.arm.com/products/DevTools/realview_distributors.html

The ARMv5 (or RVCT) compiler is just for professional use as it cost a lot.
Use GCCE with opimisation flag on and you are fine for Symbian 9.1.

To enable optimisation edit:
\Epoc32\tools\compilation_config\gcce.mk

Change the line EXTRA_CC_OPTION  to EXTRA_CC_OPTION=-O

and you will get much smaller binaries.

BR

have fun...
