I suspect this have to do with object oriented languages once they grow in size, never had such problem with C projects and even reading others work (like before mentioned LZ4 or plzip which I forked to xnlz) was such a breeze. Yet I could never properly digest C++ code not only from others, but even my own - well organized. And I used to be really good at C++ once before(before I forgot most of that crap) including complete STL knowledge, all kind of tricks etc..

Really, just drop that crap called "delphi pascal" and try plain C instead . I am almost certain you will not regret it + you will gain speed as well and besides, most of your tools are command line without GUI anyway .
I only code for fun bro or I should I say I used to as it is not fun anymore :/, so learning how to write in another language would simply mean I'm not doing it as a hobby but now taking a path towards something I do as a profession
