Alpha C/C++ performance

Hello,

I am looking at buying an Alpha UDB, but I am concerned about the =
performance of C/C++ under Linux. The benchmarks that I have seen =
(DGC, Inc.):

> 166Mhz running NT equal to a P-75, running 64-bit Linux equal to =
a P-100(maybe)
> 233Mhz running NT equal to a P-133, running 64-bit Linux equal =
to a P-150

suggest that all is not well. Can you enlighten me concerning gcc =
for Alpha? I would be running principally custom built =
neural-network simulators in C and C++. The code is =
floating-point intensive. I've cruised the FAQ, but the =
discussion on C/C++ does not seem to address these issues.

Thanks,
