Subject: C Compiler question

Hi, i recently tested 3 C compiler with my chess engine (Trex). I tested Visual
C++.net 2002 , Intel C++ 8.0 and gcc 3.3.1 (mingw). gcc with -O3 option give me
the fastest code. I tried profiling with Intel C++ but with no good result.
Visual C has good option to optimize code but gcc it's always the best. So, is
gcc the best compiler or am i a bad compiler user ? Visual C and Intel are not
cheap software !

If my memory is good, Christophe Theron work with gcc but use Visual C++ for
commercial version of Tiger. Why ?

Regards
