Some of the snippets and patches I've found define var's as
register int a;
I would guess this places this var directly into a resister for faster
access. Well thats what I remember from assembly on a VAX *shudder*.
Now I would guess a piece of code that overuses this won't be that
effective. Otherwise every var would be placed directly into a register.
Any thoughts on the use of registers, how often to use them, and the most
effective use of them?
