Subject: Speeds intel c++ versus gcc 3.1

Hello,

Zeke Smigel did for me a test and it was rather surprising.

At his K7 1.4Ghz MP:

  intel c++ 6.0 (reinforced with profile branch information):

  64919.8 nodes a second


  gcc 3.1 (not reinforced with profile branch information as
           i didn't get this to work yet):

  68135.2 nodes a second


At intel P3-800Mhz under linux gcc 3.1 was only 5.1% slower than
the intel c++ 6.0 version. This is very good result for gcc 3.1
(consider it is without profiling branch optimization yet)

So in short GCC 3.1 kicks butt!!
