Optimization
As a general rule it has been observed that many programers spend too much time on optimization and that often the compiler can do a better job than the programmer. Often readability of the code suffers for "optimiztions" that do not really optimize anything. That said, it is worthwhile to optimize the algorithim. C does not know the purpose of the code, the programmer should, the compiler can only optimize the code in doing what you said, not what you want.
