If it is and the Fortran compiler is not, this could explain the speed difference. Saving a function call for every operation will do that... Yes, gcc does use inline floating point functions unless you define STRICT_ANSI. Look at the file /usr/include/math.h. >From: steve@cpdaux.UUCP (Steve Lemke)
