Who came up with the idea, that it wouldn't increase the performance? A more modern compiler, allows that the code will be optimized in a more efficient and performant way thus resulting in less execution time (performance increase). This is the same as when someone would tell you that a float would fit into the cpu register
check the codebase on the starport and you'll figure out why we did not EXPECT performance increases. It's good that they're here, but we went as if there would be none so we wouldn't be disappointed.
