Arguably missed optimization: empty loop causes rendering to miss deadline

In our testing work we've encountered an issue where inserting an empty loop: for(int temp = 0; temp < C; temp++) { } leads to a problem when C is large. The issue is detailed in full here, where the...
When does arm-none-eabi-gcc optimize away empty loops?

I am used to gcc optimizing away the sort of "for (i=0; i<DELAYCOUNT; i++) ;" loops that people sometimes try to use for delays. But arm gcc seems to be very inconsistent in this area. the following...

Cannot step over empty FOR loop

Dear all, I'm currently evaluating uVision4.74 as a preparation for a course in embedded systems, so we would like to test the simulation capabilities of this IDE for the TM4C123GH6PM microcontroller...
