I have build a library in masm with general use funcs. I've tried to make them as optimized as possible. If you like give 'em a look and post your feedback.
More info: www.ancientritual.com

From readme:
Info: The glib is a library with general-use functions written entirely in assembly. Some of them
(if not all) are extremely optimized (fast). The speed isn't noticeable; they're fast only for some milliseconds.
So why the buzz for some millisecs then??? Just for the joy of creation. Enjoy!!
The version 2.0: After gaining some skills in assembly and after reading the Intel's optimization guide I've decided
to REWRITE ALL THE FUNCS. The result is even faster!! gPrintf for example is 26% faster than the old one and
29% faster than the VC++6 printf (release)
The funcs:
//string funcs
int _stdcall gStrlen (char* pc);
int _stdcall gStrcpy (char* dest, char* src);
int _stdcall gStrcat (char* dest, char* src);
//misc funcs
void _stdcall gMemcopy (void* dest, void* src, int size);
void _cdecl gPrintf (char* pcFormat, ...);
int _stdcall gStdOut (char* pc);
int _stdcall gfGetLine (HANDLE hFile, char* pcDest, char cDelim);
//convertions funcs
int _stdcall gIntToStr (char* pcDest, int num);
int _stdcall gUIntToStr (char* pcDest, int num);
int _stdcall gIntToStrHex (char* pcDest, int num);
int _stdcall gDoubleToStr (char* pcDest, double dbl);
int _stdcall gStrToInt (char* str);
int _stdcall gStrToIntHex (char* str);
double _stdcall gStrToDouble (char* str);
Anyone have this? download isn't working, would much appreciate it, thanks.
I used right-click, save target as... on http://www.freewebs.com/ancientritual/files/glib.zip
The routines don't seem to be too optimised - some routines use DIV and SCASB, which I thought were slow (but I am NOT good with
optimisation, so feel free to ignore my assumptions).
Thanks a lot I tried right clicking and saving with firefox 1.5 but when I do neither winar nor winzip will unzip it, say damaged archive, but saving with IE they do. Also gonna speed test these and upload code and results, in the morning, 5:30 am here now heh.
Indeed, somehow the link seems to take a Firefox user right back to this thread...not sure how. Anyway, by copying a pasting the link i have the archive (un-corrupted), it is attached for those who have trouble following the freewebs link. Nice work from the looks of it, thanks GODlike!
Ehtyar.
[edit]
Wow, just realized how oooold this post is. seems http://www.ancientritual.com/ has expired since this post was made, I'm astounded that freewebs link still works...
