Can someone explain to me why memset() would ever be better than MemSet()?

Also, shouldn't GCC (at least 3.0 or later) inline memset() automatically?

What's the result of using -finline (or your favorite compiler's
inlining flag)?

And has someone wondered why the GEQO code needs so many new nodes?
Perhaps a more lightweight data representation for internal use could be
appropriate?
