Hmmm, do u think u can optimize better than a complier? I know assembly and I
have programmed on it some time ago, it is hell for a big project and by no
means I think I can do better in optimizing it than a compiler.

Here what I think is to skip procedural thinking in favor of OO thinking, as
IMHO is better. Plain C is more difficult(but not impossible) to use it than
C++ for that matter.

Because is OO oriented, like it or not. And if used properly is quite efficient
and flexible. Try to do the same that inheritance do in C, and u will
probably   ending in doing a vtable for accessing the functions with a lot of
source code that in  C++ is done by the compiler.
