I wonder if it is still true. C++ compilers have come a long way. (as have C compilers). C++ is 99% a superset of C, I'm not sure how much of that last is used in the kernel, so it might be too much effort, but C++ is in a few cases stricter than C in ways that compilers can use to optimize. Many C programs run faster when compiled in C++ these days. If there is a difference (either way) I'd expect it to be something you can measure, but not something you would notice in the real world on one computer. (though at google scale it probably shows up) |
