> ... Glibc are evidently not the best

The GNU GCC compiler and the glibc are actually the 2 GNU projects I like most. If you are interested in high performance you won't find any better, most Linux servers (which means 99% of cloud servers) are based on these 2 projects! There are other C library implementations that may be suited better for embedded or low power devices but for servers and Desktop CPUs glibc is very good/fast.
