3.10.7.1.2
Use of Conditional Instructions
Using conditional instructions to expand if-then-else statements as described in
“Conditional Instructions” on page 195
will result in increasing the size of the generated
code. Therefore, do not use conditional instructions if application code space
requirements are an issue.
3.10.7.1.3
Use of PLD Instructions
The preload instruction PLD is only a hint, it does not change the architectural state of
the processor. Using or not using them will not change the behavior of your code,
therefore, you should avoid using these instructions when optimizing for space.
