Then i compiled the code with DJGPP and Watcom both and i found out that the EXE size of the Watcom version was smaller and the ray tracing with Watcom was really very noticable i.e 29 sec for a 1.20 sec file. I wanted to know that if watcom supports intel style of assembly and it's also a 32 bit protected mode compiler and it is also better in many other ways like optimisation and code size then why is DJGPP so popular.
