I'm not sure, if my answer is correct, but I would
think of it in the following way. The compiler would
produce an appropriate code for each of /block-code/
mentioned above, and the one with less number of
instruction set, would (should?) perform faster.
If this is part of a bigger program, using boolean
variables with while loop, could prove useful.
