Is the better way is a runtime performance hit. Does the compiler optimize this?

It’s probably a little bit slower, but there are other things more worth to optimize than to shave off a few microseconds from a 15 minute delay.

Yeah, it adds up eventually when working with embedded platforms, but for PC stuff I agree.

If you’re working in embedded I guess you can probably make an inline function or a macro so it’s taken care of at compile time.
