5. When compiling code for a 32-bit x86 target, how does the speed of
the generated code compare to that created by Visual C++ from the same

Certainly not. "Generally," to me at least, means you can't exclude
usefulness of auto-vectorization, control over degree of unrolling, ...
and would not imply that you choose options specifically to improve
performance on one compiler and reduce it on the other.
