I want to be able to stick with purely managed code, if possible. I just need
this 100 line function to run as fast as if it was hand tweaked assembly
language. I have examined CIL, for the most part it is essentially assembly
language. From what I understand any optimizations take place before the CIL is
generated. When I designed this system (in 1998) I had hand tweaked assembly
language in mind for this crucial function all along.
