But, at least the branch can be inlined? Do you mean function call? As far as I see it, that's the only advantage. There are no branches that can be eliminated from constant-folding. I imagine the original version was only inlined to help coax the compiler into inlining, which I imagine it would have done anyway if there was just a single usage of the static function. Probably the analyzejoins.c version just copied the original joinpath.c version. I didn't check the history to know if that's actually true. David
