It's possible to write really slow code in C++, but that is possible
in C also. If you are talking about the overhead introduced by inheritance
which is always implemented in terms of virtual tables/virtual pointers, it
is negligible (one indirection). Basically, it's a fallacy that C++ has to
be slow.
