I don't know why you have decided that C# or Java isn't competitive to native compiled code. After JIT there is no VM between Java/.NET and OS.
While C has better compiler than C# it still don't have JIT engine that can optimize your code for specific hardware you're running on right now. Or it can recompile code based on statistics. Options unavailable to native code. And after all having managed implementation gives better control on code, simpler code and so on. So in reality there should be strong reason for NOT using managed implementations for whatever. But it's only rising now...
