Intel C++ Compiler v8.1 for Windows

Intel C++ Compiler v8.1 for Windows
Shrink code size, speed up applications and protect your development tools investment with Intel C++ Compiler for Windows. Advanced optimization features deliver outstanding performance for applications running on the latest Intel processors. The product includes Intel C++ Compiler for eMbedded Visual C++, an optimizing compiler for PDAs, handheld devices, and mobile phone solutions, to facilitate cross architecture development.

  • Cross-architecture compatibility with IA-32 Microsoft Visual C++, Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 code and Microsoft Visual C++ .NET.
  • Advanced optimization features for the latest Intel processors to help deliver outstanding application performance.
  • Plugs into Microsoft Visual Studio development environment for IA-32 and features a preview plug-in to Microsoft Visual Studio .NET environment.
  • Allows manipulation of the stack for efficient execution of floating-point (FP) instructions with the Intel C++ Compiler on IA-32.
  • Improves application performance dramatically by using the Interprocedural Optimization (IPO) in programs containing many small- or medium-sized functions that are used frequently, especially for programs that contain calls within loops.
  • Takes advantage of the processor microarchitecture by more effectively using instruction paging and cache memory. Makes better branch predictions with the Profile Guided Optimization (PGO) by reducing instruction-cache thrashing, reorganizing code layout, shrinking code size and reducing branch mispredictions.
  • Increases development efficiency, reduces defects, and increases application performance with the Compiler Code-Coverage Tool.
  • Supports IA-32 with processor dispatch and Streaming Single Instruction Multiple Data (SIMD) Extensions 3, and parallelizes IA-32 code automatically to maximize underlying processor capabilities with the automatic vectorizer.
  • Supports the new Intel Extended Memory 64 Technology (Intel EM64T).
  • Uses execution with predicated instructions to completely remove branches from program sequences, resulting in larger basic code blocks and eliminating associated mispredict penalties.
  • Improves code for Intel Itanium 2 microarchitecture using branch instruction, speculation and software pipelining.
  • Supports multithreading applications with OpenMP API version 2.0 and auto-parallelization.
  • Produces ANSI C/C++ and ISO C/C++ standards compatible software.
  • Supports the Intel Debugger.

P.S : for full pm

Is this an evaluation version or the full thing?

it is evaluation…note the P.S.

Cool…nice post man
