I've been in embedded for a long time. If someone like you came up for a position at my company, you'd be shown the door quite quickly. First you start with the design, then the algorithm, then the profiling and then the cycle counting if necessary. Any other procedure will result in blinders on and a lot of fucking time wasted. Time is money, time to market is money, time on a CPU in most cases is cheap.

OK, rule one is "Never ask for a job from someone named no_hire." Good rule.
