I'm at odds with absolute goals like that.
They're good for proof of concept code. It's good to know how far some envelope can be pushed. However, once code gets productive, other factors come like (among others) maintainability, redundancy, testability etc. come into play. Normally you'll have to strike a trade-off of some kind and what you'll get is specifically *not* "absolute best performance". Hey, as long as you aren't coding in assembly, you're not going to get the absolute bests performance anyway, there will always be some 10% or 20% you don't get - trying to get the maximum out of C++ isn't actually that interesting, and the art is to see the diminishing returns and know when to stop.
