Yes, I noticed I took the lead in a rapid optimization sweep :-)
But I still think Thomas' vector stuff will be *very* hard to beat (two
orders of magnitude isn't something you do everyday :-) ).

I use a better profiler that gives even a graphical overview of call
hierarchies and such. :-)

The "native" MSVC profiler is probably just as crappy. One question: does
gcc have an option to insert a "function_enter" (or something like that, and
a function_leave would also be helful) call to every compiled function? If
so, I could probably supply a rather decent profiling framework within a
matter of days. If gcc doesn't have such an option, perhaps someone should
suggest it to the gcc team?
