Heh, only two? ;)
Maybe I'm a fool, but 176 bytes of text bloat isn't scaring me off too
much. I'd much rather have that than another window into x86 goofiness
to maintain.
Does that 176 bytes translate into meaningful performance, or is it just
a bunch of register bit twiddling that the CPU will sail through?
