Okay, so there are reasons why C is /difficult/ to make very efficient for numerical computations. Aliasing is not one of them since C99 for a sufficiently knowledgable programmer thanks to the restrict keyword. The library is the real problem. code.google.com/p/fridgescript - faster than C in some cases, only because it doesn't use the math library, but uses hardware without indirect calls and without caring for obscure edge cases.
