The series is pretty well-written, and useful for C# practitioners, but I assume that the techniques have been known in the C++ community for a long time, so while it is faster than an unoptimized C++ implementation, it is no faster than a similar C++ implementation; they both wind up with nearly the same assembly instructions.
