关于strlen

strlen的实现是通过4个字节4个字节进行枚举，然后通过位运算来判断这4个字节中是否有一个字节含有0，这样的话，效率就提高了4倍。

这个效率提高是假设a&b&c&d与a&b有差不多效率的前提下。

那用8字节8字节来偏移的话，是不是更快呢？32位机上不会，64位机上会提高一倍。因为a&b在64位下会提高一倍，因为32位的寄存器大小是32位的，对于分别MOV高位与低位两次。

本来实验a&b&c&d与a&b的速度的，经实验验证，这两个效率确实是差不多的，然后去看汇编，看指令条数，在没有使用-O优化下，指令的条数差别跟运算符号的个数的倍数相同，就让我感到疑惑了。

下面附上实验的代码：

    unsigned int high = 0x80808080;
    while (true) {
        unsigned int d = *p++;
        if (((d - low) & ~d & high) != 0) { // handle [0...256)
        //if (((d - low) & high) != 0) { // handle [0...128)
            break;
