I have seen this happening so often: C/C++/Rust often end up using CPU-specific features, and the code starts looking more and more like assembly code, and less like idiomatic high-level language code. Basically, comparisons of programs written in all the other languages against these three become meaningless. And in turn, hurts benchmarksgame as a resource for comparing languages. If I had to write a performant library at work, I too might rely on CPU-specific assembly wrappers in my code. But IMO, such code has no place in a general-purpose cross-language benchmark site.
