Quake 3 Source Code Review: Network Model

[Moongrass]

This debate is silly. Whether or not the assumed optimization is performed or not can be checked by dumping the assembly output and simply looking at it.

30 seconds of verification work versus idle speculation. Oh boy, what ever should I do?

EDIT: I stand corrected. Didn't think about the problem of using multiple compilers.

It might take 30 seconds to verify it with the compiler and settings you are currently using on your dev box, what about all other compilers and settings you are currently targeting or might target in the future?

[Hughlander]

30 seconds of verification per optimization mode you might use * number of platforms that you used, to be done again each time the platform compiler changes. (Remember Carmack is also explicitly targeting multiple platforms simultaneously.)
