I think you make a good case and I tend to agree, but you know that many people accuse Intel of just developing a compiler to look good on SPEC benchmarks. They claim nobody really uses it. Can you give us an idea as to just how many companies actually use the Intel optimizing compiler?

I recently worked at a dev tools company, and I never ran into anyone using the Intel Reference Compiler. Virtually everyone uses the Microsoft compiler these days, with a few holdouts still using Borland or Watcom.
