I have made a game engine based on voxel, using only the CPU and here's the benchmark I made, for 1 million voxels:

  • 20 FPS for a non optimized code, using Visual Studio compiler
  • 144 FPS for an optimized code, using VS compiler
  • 400 FPS for a non optimized code but with optimization flag, using Intel C++ Compiler.

And I am using an i3 6100.

So yes, ICC can help me a lot for this project.

Also this program is made in C#, does ICC support C# ? ^^

No, I don't think so.

Ok,

Anyway I just realized that I cannot choose the compiler for a C# solution, so it's useless since I am working with C#.
