I look at the generated code and in the direct one there's additional
overhead of decrementing the reference counter on each iteration. Here's
what the core code looks like:
Direct:
leal -56(%ebp),%eax
call fpc_unicodestr_decr_ref
leal -56(%ebp),%eax
call P$TEST_$$_GETSOMESTRING$$UNICO

Yes, I do. And I'm obviously aware that there are plenty of addons

Hello all,
As I'm moving further into my experiments with FreePascal 2.6.0, I have
run into a strange issue related to UnicodeString comparisons.
Basically, I'm comparing the result of a function with a constant value
and find that the comparison is faster if I first assign the result of
the f

Hi list,
I've been extending fpcup, trying to add Win64=>Win32 cross compiler ...

With FPC trunk, I get this error:

Hello all,
Let's consider the following test program:
program test;
function DirectCompute: Double;
var
k: Integer;
begin
k := 0;
Result := (k+0.5)/12;
end;
function IntermediateCompute: Double;
var
k: Integer;
begin
k := 0;
Result := k+0.5;
Result := Result / 12;
end;
begin
