The same is true with hi-tech-c lite with 2 redundant extra goto executions compiled for every IF statement. to encourage you to buy the compiler. The same is true with Intel CPU chips. You pay for the best performance or unlocked OC options.. | |
| Nov 28, 2018 at 16:23 | comment | added | Spehro 'speff' Pefhany | As @TonyEErocketscientist says, the free versions generally have less optimization available so you can either buy a somewhat bigger, faster chip and live with maybe a bit more cost and power consumption, or you can shell out for the optimization and (maybe) end up with a cheaper lower power design. Since memory size tends to increase with a lot of granularity it may not make a difference to the chip you use. | |
