I did notice this article and took note of the claim.

This is a very interesting topic to me and one that merits a "science 
project". I invested much effort in making sure code was generated at 
compile time whenever possible so I would be disappointed at such a result.

My past experience in this area is that one really has to undertake a 
serious effort to gather this kind of data. I've been through before with my 
sort program (www.rrsd.com) and now believe that there is no short cut in 
this area. Anecdotal information is usually very misleading. I would guess 
there is likely a few areas where performance is getting bogged down. I 
might suspect the stl used in object tracking. However, in the past, 
whenever I really looked at these questions with a good statistical 
profiler, I've always found that bottle necks in places where I never would 
have suspected.

So, this is an interesting area which needs a serious look.
