This proved beneficial for performance: For the sample [1] the number of decicycles in one decode call decreased from 155851561 to 108158037 for Clang 10 and from 168270467 to 128847479 for GCC 9.3. For x86-32 compiled with GCC 9.3 and run on an x64 Haswell the number increased from 158405517 to 202215769, so that the cached bitstream reader is only enabled if HAVE_FAST_64BIT is set. These values are the average of 10 runs each looping five times over the input.
