Please find the code in the attached file named "Custom_vs_CGAL_speed.cpp".
Also find the screenshot of timings on my machine, named "cgal_speeds_1.png"

I am using EPIC,
so should I implement the stuff myself? It gives me better timings.

And if I compare any CGAL's examples with my implementation, I (am) will be
faster.

You should benchmark against Simple_cartesian<double>, not Epick, since you don't seem to aim for exactness.

Please read the link I gave in the previous email and understand that your code will sometimes give the wrong result, which is why we cannot use it in Epick.
