[QUOTE="Ian Collins, post: 3588007"] Most, if not all processors prefer types to be aligned to their natural boundary, say 4 bytes for an int. When an int value is not aligned on a 4 byte boundary, the processor may require one or two extra bus cycles to read the value form memory. Some processors (Sparc for example) *require* types to be aligned to their natural boundary. They will generate a hardware trap it you attempt a misaligned access. [/QUOTE]
