-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] In the algorithms they made some significant gains on Windows and Xbox, but not so much on Mac and Linux. I guess libstdc++ is faster than Microsoft's STL implementation. Since a lot of games will target Microsoft platforms I guess it was a good move to rewrite their STL implementation.
I wonder if Valve has a similar benchmark comparison for CUtl* and the equivalent operations using STL.
