I'm an ex-sysadmin.
Back in the day, I had a geekcode which I'm not going to share with you.

I think at the point where we're measuring 1-off improvements in tens of milliseconds, it's not valuable. If this was in a library being called hundreds of times, then sure. Otherwise, it's only valuable so long as it doesn't impact anything else, such as code readability or cross-platform compatibility. I mean, for example, if you get an optimisation for one platform by splitting the code, for example, then it's debatable whether you've improved the final product.

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
