In this article we discuss the advantages (and pitfalls) in developing code optimization and Maple to C conversion programs for Maple procedures, specifically those required for numerical differential equation solution. Special treatment related to code optimization for large sets of equations is a major focus. Issues related to conversion of Maple code to C code are discussed, and finally a set of comparisons for code optimization and ode problems are provided.
