It does for certain things - they are plenty of comparisons (well, at
least one) available against the latest gcc.
I just don't think it matters that much - oh, this works 1% faster when
I compile OpenBeOS with the Intel compiler, so what?
For now, we are stuck with gcc 2.95 anyway, so there are some compilers
that produce faster code; nevertheless, that gcc a good choice,
depending on what you want. Personally, I never felt BeOS to be
sluggish, even if it is using this compiler.
Adios...
