C++0x optimizing compiler quality
- by aaa
hello.
I do some heavy numbercrunching and for me floating-point performance is very important.
I like performance of Intel compiler very much and quite content with quality of assembly it produces.
I am thinking at some point to try C++0x mainly for sugar parts, like auto, initializer list, etc, but also lambdas. at this point I use those features in regular C++ by the means of boost.
How good of assembly code do compilers C++0x generate? specifically Intel and gcc compilers.
Do they produce SSE code? is performance comparable to C++? are there any benchmarks?
My Google search did not reveal much.
Thank you.
