Google do a lot of work with large sets of data, and they use C++. Beyond a certain point, the disadvantages start outweighing the advantages. I shouldn't think that you could get much gains in assembly over C. Unless you're working with very low resources (such as a PIC or some small, embedded system), I shouldn't think assembly would be your best choice.
