Edit Question
Title
Body
The language shootout benchmarks at http://benchmarksgame.alioth.debian.org/ indicate that FPC programs use about 1/50th of the memory that comparable programs using g++ use. Do these benchmarks unintentionally favor fpc or is it really true that FPC is this much better than g++? I've always considered these benchmarks as a collection of decent micro-benchmarks, so I'm surprised at these results, since a factor of 50 times is pretty significant IMHO.
