Re: [avr-gcc-list] Urgent Queries about AVR-GCC

[Larry Barello]

Last time I checked (about 1-1/2 years ago) IAR slightly edged out GCC in code
generation, but when linked with libraries GCC still won.  None of the other AVR
compilers I checked (ICC and CV) came even close.

I guess you *can* have your cake and eat it for free... as long as you program 
in
"small" model, which is what GCC does.  Still, I agree the switch statement 
could be
cleaned up.

Cheers!
