I have made some CPU-intensive comparisons between Windows compilers
and in each case Borland C invariably came out at least 20% slower
than Visual C or GCC. This is a very substancial difference in the
context of comp.compilers, I think.


In the context of real-world Windows programming and the typical
applications that are developed with Delphi (GUI and database
frontends?) such performance difference couldn't matter less... :-)
