Abstract
In an approach for decreasing an execution time of a computer code, one or more processors identify a long-form conditional branch that is included in a first region of a computer code. The one or more processors generate a long-form unconditional branch with a target that is a target of a long-form conditional branch. The one or more processors modify the long-form conditional branch to be a short-form conditional branch. The one or more processors insert the long-form unconditional branch into the computer code within a branch distance of the short-form conditional branch. The one or more processors modify a target of the short-form conditional branch to be a location of the long-form unconditional branch in the computer code.
