Recently I have been involved in mixed language programming on Solaris
sparc/x86 using Sun CC. I clearly see amazing performance improvements
when off-loading mathematically
intensive code to F95. I am new to F95. I generally develop in C++.
From what I see it looks that gfortran may not provide anything beyond
what g++ would
provide. Is the compiler sensitive to vectorization supported by F95?
It is very essential for me to know this as I rather not offload
calculations if there is
no gain whatsoever.
Thanks for the support.
