A definite problem, but only on the "literal translation" part of the
comparison.  Presumably, equivalent code could be developed and
compared.

The point of this exercise is not to compare entire development
platforms, but rather the compiler output.  Yes, everyone knows that VC
produces faster code than BCB. But how much faster,  it is commonly
tossed out that VC is *much* faster.  I personally don't think that is
true.  I think it is *much* faster at a small handful of things and the
same or only marginally faster on a bunch of others.  The only way to
settle this is with a solid comparison, rather than a pathetic and
usually highly benchmark that some knocked off in 10 minutes.
