Execution Speed of C++ in different circumstances!!!! [modified]

[C++ Programming]

Hi everyone!!

I have a scientific C++ program which requires a good speed to run.(the program runs a lot of matrix and vector operations)

For doing that, I come across following options on the net:

1. Use of turbo C++
2. Use of Linux instead of window XP

My current system uses Dev C++ over Window XP.

Can I expect some speed increase using above options?
If so, would it be significant?


Thanks
