Math Library Question

I have been doing some extensive computational tasks on my G3 233 and
found out something that disturbed me. By commenting out one line
containing POW((double)a, (int)b), execution time of my program went
from 12 secs to 1 sec !!!
I used the standard math library trying to make a clean code. But the
performance is unacceptable.
Are there any ways (libraries, tricks, bla, bla) to avoid such stalls on
basic math functions like EXP and POW?
I am taking anything into consideration.

PS: Using C++ ,
egcs-2.91.66 (1.1.2 release)

Thanks
