Re: You should have been sacked

I used on optimising compiler that ran 1 billion iterations of an empty loop at three eights of a cycle per loop. I checked the assembler code. Compiler had decided to unroll the loop eight times. Eight times nothing is still nothing, but now it had an empty loop iterating 125 million times instead of a billion. Should have unrolled again :-)
