I mean, "modern compiler" can mean all sorts of things, right? Wouldn't a cheap compiler not work as well as a more expensive one?There is a saying that premature optimisation is the root of all evil.
Basically, learn to walk before you run. It is an exceptional ARM programmer who can outperform a modern compiler.
Just as a data point, I've been programming professionally for over 40 years. I haven't had to write in optimised assembler in the last 30, and its only recently I have had to write any sort of assembler, and that was using the PIO on the RP2040.
