Intel's compiler is the best?

You wrote: "There is no other Windows compiler with a similar performance, not even the Gnu compiler for Windows."

Which compilers did you test?

Did you try e.g. the Portland Group (PGI) compiler? That means, does Intel's compiler (icc) produce faster executables than e.g. the PGI compiler for Intel CPU's? Does icc (with a patched CPU dispatcher) even produce faster executables than e.g. PGI for AMD CPU's?

Not that I'd try to challenge your claims (I haven't benchmarked any of the compilers), I'm just interested. Thanks! :-)
