    Sure, at least two:
     #1
       Replace your compiler -> http://openwatcom.com
     #2
       Devise a sngl method which outperforms all of your candidates

    Under #1 you'll discover what a *difference* a compiler makes, and under
    #2 you'll (eventually) learn just what a hobbled bunch you're trying to
    choose from.
