A quick test with a C++ application I'm working with which does a lot of

This may be a result of the way the libC you are using was compiled.

Try to compare performance tests that only depend on code you did write by your
own.


Most of the C++ standard library (at least the containers part I'm
using) is header only code, so it is mainly code I compile my self.

Not using libC is somewhat impractical in real world applications!

Not if the program isn't written in C++!

The binary compatibility problems (plus a million other reasons) of C ++ make me strongly urge people not to choose C++ as the language for their project unless they are forced to by other constraints. (And then they
will have to live with the consequent problems.)

Out of interest, what language do you recommend?
