Are there other ways to get C-compilers to produce faster code on modern machines?
I would recommend to take a look at http://www.amd.com/us-en/assets/content_type/white_papers_and_tech_docs/2200... if you have not seen it before. Although wtitten by AMD, many recommendations apply to most modern CPUs. I've found Chapter 3 particulary informative. In fact I've changed my coding habits after reading some of their recommendations (for example "Use Array-Style Instead of Pointer-Style Code"). -- sasha
