I always assumed C++ would have better performance than C and, when I had
the choice, opted for C++.
Today, however, I was researching writing components for Linux and came
across this statement:
"KDE came first and came earlier to a mature state but C++ makes Qt and MICO
particularly inefficient for sophisticated applications. This was partially
corrected in version 2.0 and the coming 2.1."
The comparison was to GNOME, which is written in C.
My question is not application-specific, but general: Is C a more efficient
compiler than C++, offering better performance? Do the extra features of C++
slow down the execution of the final product?
Any insight is appreciated.
Thanks!
