Weird, I will never presume it, only suspect it would. I tend not to be over confident in compilers: what I presume is that compilers inject "convenient bugs" into machine code, which are not in the compiled language but it the end can be exploited. We all know that "software security audits" is about finding "holes" in some machine code, then propagate the fix into the compilers (and often the compiled language). If the machine code does change, the audit must be done all over again.
But, where assembly is better: near zero planned obsolescence from compilers (since there are none), which is really a pain on the medium/long run, REALLY!
Writting assembly is not really about speed anymore nowdays, it is more about independence from those grotesquely and absurdely massive and complex compilers.
