Hi everyone,

So I stumbled across this Australian programmer who talks about branchless programming and assembly-level optimisations, and it's interesting because he points out the pitfalls of trying to out-optimise the compiler.  Just a random thing I thought the compiler developers might be interested in.

P.S. The "smaller" function he illustrates, which is essentially "min", I think FPC already optimises it with a CMOV instruction!
