Those are AMD64 platforms and GCC was the first compiler for that
platform, we had some advantage over other vendors - and the GCC
developers optimizing for it did a great job!

I suggest to compare the following platforms instead to see how good
we are:
- Intel x86: icc vs. gcc
- Intel IPF: icc vs. gcc
- Alpha: A system compiler vs. gcc
