I disagree. gcc (versions 3 and 4) will indeed inline with various -On options but gets it right. AFAIK the return test in growsdown MUST be evaluated regardless of optimization out of the variables themselves and therefore the compiler in this case must do it right. Actually, as a side note to the original implementation, is not the compiler free to choose what to do with at a static defined variable ? Roger
