Yes, compiled C or C++ is almost always better. This is a major reason why the Microsoft compilers no longer support inline assembly code on the 64-bit architectures. (you can still link in assembled binaries of course)
This brings to mind another reason why the statement "Wrong: use Assembler Language" is so goofy. You're never going to use assembly language. You're going to use 99.9% C or C++ and a bit of assembly language. "Use C if you want something to go as fast as possible" is still basically correct.
