Since this discussion made me curious about oop vs procedural execution speed, I wrote a little test program in C++.
I don't have time to search the program for logical errors, so I won't release it yet.
But if it is all correct, it shows that the speed varies a lot depending on compiler. With VS 2005 I got remarkable results that speak for oop in this case.

I will upload the source code tomorrow when I find some time to check it for errors.

This, of course, does not cover the oop languages vs procedural languages dialog, but only tests the truth behind the general statement: "oop makes programs slower" in C++ case.
