Just one example:

A 352 bit floating point. Yes, you can write that in C, but the speed
is very bad. Lcc-win's module is an order of magnitude faster. Why?

o Using add and add with carry to add 64 bit integers keeping the carry.
o Using many assembly specific instructions that the C compiler never
   uses.
o And a long etcetera.

But I notice that you said:

"almost always"

Well... :-)
