It's compiled on the machine it is run on, making it possibly faster than pre-compiled code for a more generic architecture.

My guess is that the C++ compiler is using some special optimization (e.g., MMX instructions, or loop unwinding) that the C# compiler didn't happen to implement for this scenario.

Compiles to bytecode AFAIK, and runs in a VM.

No garbage-collector thread in the background, no framework at all.

The DLL contains bytecode, but when (just before, actually) the DLL is run it gets compiled to native code.

The garbage collector works in stages. It wouldn't slow down performance in general.
