What makes it faster than C++?

I see this in the documentation but I am not sure it helps me (not an expert):

> C++? Codon often generates the same code as an equivalent C or C++ program. Codon can sometimes generate better code than C/C++ compilers for a variety of reasons, such as better container implementations, the fact that Codon does not use object files and inlines all library code, or Codon-specific compiler optimizations that are not performed with C or C++.
