#182488 - HLL delay loops - just don't do it!
Responding to: ???'s previous message

If your app is complex, then you are wasting CPU clock cycles in idling.

The same applies if your app is simple!

If your code is in C and you switch on the code optimizations, the delay value will decrease

Not necessarily!

The point is that the duration of a loop in any High-Level Language (HLL) - including 'C' is entirely unpredictable
