If you write the ASM for my R5000 processor I will agree. Otherwise I
will continue to believe that the compilers are optimizing in a fashion
which is good enough for everyone.
I don't think that C++ will make the render faster but I think it might
make programming faster which is something I would like to see too. :-)
