> Are there any circumstances where this produces a larger speedup? I don't know. *_find_max_char in any case only a part of expensive functions.

I agree. It is rather a question of purity. In my opinion the function has become easier (for developer and for compiler).

I don't know. *_find_max_char in any case only a part of expensive
functions. Even if it is optimized to zero time, this will most likely
not produce a larger speedup.

I agree. It is rather a question of purity. In my opinion the function
