The two secrets to writing fast code are:
1. using a profiler
2. looking at the assembler output of the compiler
In my experience, programmers will go to astonishing lengths to avoid doing
those two, and will correspondingly expend hundreds of hours "optimizing" and
getting perplexing results.
There are also those who are not programmers, and don't know what they are
doing
in the first place.
Sure, but my advice is directed at the people who *do* know what they are doing,
but are avoiding using a profiler and looking at the assembly output.
