 @Pawlicker @loopy pedestrian✍🏿 I mean for example with ranges that compiles down to iterators which in turn compile down (in the case of contiguous memory) to pointer operations. So the end result is pointer arithmetic with straightforward memory access. I don't think you can get any faster than that.

 @Pawlicker @loopy pedestrian✍🏿 or like how 733t hax0rs will do a bunch of weird conditional math shit to avoid branching and they just end up confusing both the compiler and processor which is now no longer capable of applying branch prediction
