Phenom > i7 IMO.

attn: this is not how comparing processors works.

you can't just say that a pentium 4 is better than a core i7 just because it's your opinion.

an i7 will beat up a p4, take its lunch money, and then proceed to rape its parents any day of the week.

Fixed my Error, I had to use "export LANG=C" to fix it.

I'm stumped. How do they do it. When I compile my Program with G++, it's about 17KB and uses about half of my CPU. When I use ICPC, it's about 30KB and uses just about none of my CPU. WHY MUST INTEL BE AWESOME?! D:

Wanna see my Beta and Glitchy Level Editor for my Game? It's so confusing. XD

There was also the SDL Mario Engine a while back. Look for it in the FGD.

You're focusing on the wrong stuff. If performance is a problem, your code is at fault, not your compiler. --------------------

I did some research and found that the GNU GCC Compiler actually produces bad code in many occasions. I understand that my code is at fault, and I'm working to fix it, but using the Intel Compiler will help me speed up my Beta Testing. Now, I don't notice any actual Lag when Compiled with GCC, but I do notice that my CPU Usage goes up to 25-50% when running one of my Programs that was compiled under GCC. When I run it when it's compiled under ICC, the CPU Usage doesn't increase at all. Here's my Level Editor Code:

CODE

#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;

sf::RenderWindow App(sf::VideoMode(640, 480, 32), "");

class Object
{
public:
int type, subtype;
sf::Image Image;
sf::Sprite Sprite;

Object(int t, int st, int a, int b);
void Render();
};

Object::Object(int t, int st, int a, int b)
{
type = t;
subtype = st;
Image.SetSmooth(false);
switch (type)
{
case 0:
Image.LoadFromFile("Res/Mario.png");
break;

case 1:
switch(subtype)
{
case 0:
Image.LoadFromFile("Res/Solid.png");
break;

case 1:
Image.LoadFromFile("Res/Solidtop.png");
break;

case 3:
Sprite.FlipX(true);
case 2:
Image.LoadFromFile("Res/SSlope.png");
break;

case 5:
Sprite.FlipX(true);
case 4:
Image.LoadFromFile("Res/Slope.png");
break;
}
break;
}
Sprite.SetImage(Image);
Sprite.SetPosition(a, b);
}

void Object::Render()
{
App.Draw(Sprite);
}

if (type == 1)

Objects.push_back(new Object(type, subtype, x, y));

}

file << ' ' << Objects.at(i)->subtype << '\n';
else
file << '\n';
}
file.close();
Objects.clear();
return 0;
}

Obviously, I need help with Organization. D: If you can find anything in there that might be causing the drastic CPU Usage Increase, tell me. I have tried looking, but I don't see much that could be causing it. If you don't want to look at my terrible code, fine, but since I'm pretty much the only one who will have the final Level Editor, I think using ICC to compile it should be fine.
