Beschreibung

Noted in discussion here about the recent DateTime perf optimization, that we could not rely on the JIT to safely collapse multiplication. In this example below, there's an extra shr. Same on x86.

class Program
{
    uint f(uint u2) {
        return u2 / 2939745 / 4;
    }

    uint g(uint u2) {
        return u2 / 11758980;
    }
}
Program.f(UInt32)
    L0000: mov eax, edx
    L0002: imul rax, 0x5b4fffcb
    L0009: shr rax, 0x34
    L000d: shr eax, 2
    L0010: ret

Program.g(UInt32)
    L0000: mov eax, edx
    L0002: imul rax, 0x5b4fffcb
    L0009: shr rax, 0x36
    L000d: ret
