thrift

Well, it's a C macro in Apache Thrift code base [1] #ifdef __GNUC__ #define TDB_LIKELY(val) (__builtin_expect((val), 1)) #define TDB_UNLIKELY(val) (__builtin_expect((val), 0)) #else #define TDB_LIKELY(val) (val) #define TDB_UNLIKELY(val) (val) #endif This code is beautiful when it deal with CPU cache-line effects to speed up your program.
