I like to have the functional connection: if - for whatever reason - the array base offset is smaller than 16, we need to deal with that. The reason for this happens to be `UseCompactObjectHeaders`, but that may not be clear to the reader of the code. I could add an `assert(UseCompactObjectHeaders` in that branch to make that connection clear. Also consider that `UseCompactObjectHeaders` is intended to go away at some point. I wonder if having 2 or 3 branches ahead of the main-loop (which probably doesn't do much, because haystack is <=32 bytes) is a useful approach, or if there may be a better way to get the bytes on the stack? I don't know enough about the implementation to make that judgement. ------------- PR Review Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/20677#discussion_r1778230714
