True, but gcc isn’t the only C compiler, and these days clang, which is an LLVM frontend like rustc, is pretty popular and mostly equivalent to gcc.

In my experience, there have been times rustc underperformed relative to both gcc and clang.

In the past performance infelicities have been fixed, but there are some that remain.
