Yeah it's on our backlog to look at profiling information and ifcvt for GCC 17
and I added a TODO in the code for it :).
As you say there are cases where the ifconversion is better, e.g. if the longer
chain is usually the path taken for instance. Or if we know the branches are
roughly the same but the code path truly unpredictable.
The zstd case is more pathological in that it's a series of if/then/else and
where
the majority of the time it's only one path through this that's meaningfully
taken.
Especially in those cases it PGO would likely give meaningful help.
