+
+performance-bool-bitwise-operation
+==================================
+
+Finds potentially inefficient use of bitwise operators such as ``&``,  ``|`` 
+and their compound analogues on Boolean values where logical operators like 
+``&&`` and ``||`` would be more appropriate.
+
+Bitwise operations on Booleans can incur unnecessary performance overhead due 
+to implicit integer conversions and missed short-circuit evaluation.
+
+.. code-block:: c++
+
+  bool invalid = false;
+  invalid |= x > limit.x; // warning: use logical operator instead of bitwise 
one for bool
+  invalid |= y > limit.y; // warning: use logical operator instead of bitwise 
one for bool
+  invalid |= z > limit.z; // warning: use logical operator instead of bitwise 
one for bool
+  if (invalid) {
+    // error handling
+  }
+
+These 3 warnings suggest to assign result of logical ``||`` operation instead 
+of using ``|=`` operator:
+
+.. code-block:: c++
+
+  bool invalid = false;
+  invalid = invalid || x > limit.x;
+  invalid = invalid || y > limit.x;
+  invalid = invalid || z > limit.z;
+  if (invalid) {
+    // error handling
+  }
+
+Options
+-------
+
+.. option:: StrictMode
+
+    Disabling this option promotes more fixit hints even when they might
