Compiler tricks to improve speed

Sure.

1) throw out floating point 2) use smaller datatypes, eg byte instead of integer where appropriate

Using statics may make it faster.

# Read the assembler output, and start to learn the code the compiler creates for given constructs. ie understand your tools # Focus on the code blocks, where you know speed matters. # Use in-line assembler, but only as a last resort. # Increase the CPU clock speed, or move to a newer infineon model, like the 868 or 888 variants ?

you may use intrinsics which map c statements to asm instructions this can improve speed in modules which r cycle instensive e.g. most processor haver leading count zero instruction ( there will be a corresponding multi nstructiont for the same ) u can use intrinsic to replace this code . this will give u codesize as well as speed

read the section of the manual on making the code smaller and faster.
