Hello,

Using the Intel 9.1 compiler on an IA64 system the performance of
AES and (to a lesser extent) other algorithms implemented in
assembly language is less than that using gcc. I've included the
speed output for several of the algorithms below.

Is this a know issue and is there a workaround other than switching
to gcc?

How about if you use something other than -O2 with icc compared to the -O3 on gcc? That could I would think affect the 'C' stuff but shouldn't affect the assembly stuff though (although who knows, I'm just a networking guy...) is the assembly stuff such that it is still done with icc as the compiler rather than gcc?
