Is there any performance difference between greater than and greater than or equal?

Question

On today\'s modern processors, is there any performance difference between greater than and greater than or equal comparison for a branch condition? If I have a condition t

Answer 1

I'm not quite sure how the underlying implementation is done in the ALU/FPU but there should only be one operation for all of them (on primitive types that is)

I really hope that this is only a question because you are curious and not that you're trying to optimize, this will never give you a big performance boost and most likely your code will contain far far worse performance issues.

You can event implement all relation operators using just one:

a < b is the base
a > b == b < a
a >= b == !(a < b)
a <= b == !(a > b)

This is of course not how it's implemented in the CPU, this is more trivia.
