Based on your own comments in the code it seems you can't see a reason for the anomalous and counter-intuitive observation yourself, right? So i suggest that the funny hack in there is a low-level optimizations that runs the risk of hurting more than it helps (if it ever helped and you were not tricked by the profiler), not the other way round. Think about it for a moment :-)

It's a not a low-level optimization. It's not an optimization at all. It's just the most natural way to write that particular piece of code. It's just that when I went to optimize I discovered that apparently it worked faster than the alternative, but I'll take another look at it.
