Absolutely agree!

I do have to do things in assembler from time to time, however.

Subject: Re: Microprocessor Optimization Primer

Reading that book reinforced my opinion that I would rather leave micro
optimizations to a compiler. How can you optimize for hardware that hasn't
been invented yet? In 5 years time I can just recompile my code for the new
architecture in assembly you need to rewrite.
