How will it add an extra condition? The compiler is smart enough to understand while( true ) is an unconditional loop and will not generate the code for a condition check instead it'll just put a JMP instruction back to the start of the block. So no overheads there.
Exactly. So does this happen even with optimization turned off? If it does then shouldn't my code in query two cause a miss in the instruction pipeline all the time?
