Then you should have written that. Instead you have given more fodder for the premature optimization crowd.

I didn't tell anyone to optimize anything. I just posted numbers. It's not my fault some people are wired that way. Anytime I suggested some sort of recommendation it was to NOT optimize.

For example, from the post "Maybe we don’t have to optimize it out of the test condition on a while loop looping 100 times after all."
