I suggest that it might benefit you to understand cost of IO. In most systems 
the IO cost dwarfs the CPU cost of optimizations like these. I am not saying it 
never matters - I have significant HFT experience and sone HPC - but in MOST 
cases it holds true. 

So micro optimizing the CPU usually has little effect on total runtime. 

Broken algs, ON^2, are another story.
