1. C/C++ compilers' speed

Does somebody know which of Micro$oft Visual C++, Borland C++ 5, Open Watcom
beta, etc. compilers generate faster code?
TIA

Watcom is fastest with the largest generated .exe/.dlls
Borland is slightly slower and middle of the road in size.
LCC is fast but slower than Bor or Wat with the smallest generated .exe/dlls

I have made a request to eliminate unused imports
for console mode output in Windows GUI's (tranlator specific)
(a simple message box, your program error and line number)
would be great. this would eliminate alot of API that most
of us never use.

I guess I could go on all day bout this kind of stuff.

Speed of generated code!

Watcom is fastest
Borland comes in second
and LCC third

My guess is that MSC++ would be slower simply because
C++ compilers usually generate slower code from the get-go.

just as I said earlier.

I write C code aswell, not just euphoria.

btw, I have the 2.3 interpreter source code running faster than the
(RDS) Watcom compiled version using LCC because Im using 
more API instead of C-runtime functions but, thats another story.

Eum
