  I think gcc is in general not the best choice
when you want   to have highly 
  optimized code. I had no problems with C++ so
far. You   should avoid to use 
  pointers when ever possible and use references
instead.   RTSynth is written 
  in C++ and it performs quite well i think...

 erm, sorry, but why not use pointers? 
  it's dangerous... null pointers, memory leaks etc. tendency is not to use
pointers unless absolutely neccessary...

  as for the context above, I don't think it has anything to do with
performance (should be same).
