silc_unlikely

NAME

    #define silc_unlikely(expression)

DESCRIPTION

Branch prediction macro. It specifies that it is unlikely that the branch where silc_unlikely is applied is taken. Compiler will optimize the code based on this prediction. Never use this before you have profiled the code first.
