Assembly and intrinsics: evaluating C and C++ choices
Dan Luu’s article discusses assembly and intrinsics, topics relevant to engineers evaluating low-level implementation choices in C and C++. This pauta proposes a practical way to compare those choices.

What happened and what to do
Published on March 27, 2026, Dan Luu’s article “Assembly v. intrinsics” discusses assembly and intrinsics and their relevance to engineers evaluating low-level implementation choices in C and C++.
A company can turn this evaluation into a repeatable process: define use cases, build benchmarks for the implementations under consideration, and monitor performance and correctness across execution environments. Documented comparisons can inform decisions without relying only on assumptions about the code.
How the consultancy can help
Wendelmaques can diagnose where low-level choices affect a company’s systems, define a comparison suited to its use cases, and propose the implementation and operation of benchmarks and monitoring.
