Hi Vincent, I have also played a bit with it. I have had so far no problem at all. The compiled code for comet is a bit faster (~10%) on PIII/Athlon platforms and a bit slower on K6 or older Pentium architectures. However, this result is comet-specific and can not be generalized. Patzer for instance was slower on all platforms, when compiled with the Intel C++ (compared to MSVC). It depends on the program, on the destination hardware and on your special choice of compiler switches. Surely, the Intel C offers a lot of possibilities for experimenting (profiled compilation etc. ).
