gcc and assembly

[Stephen Turner]

i have a stupid question. when a person programs in
asm or machine code they make a smaller and faster
program cause they can optimize it better than an
assembler, but cant an assembler be made better, maybe
even close to a humans quality in programing and
optimization? i was just curious, seen a fast machine
coded distro on a disk a while back and wondered why
compiling your own code optimized wasnt as fast..
