So you put a 150 byte string in a union? And then access it as some
other type? And there is no loop?!
You stated that using memcpy is bad because it *always* includes a
function call and a loop. I showed you one case where it doesn't. That
takes away the *always* from the argument.
Wanna guess how the compiler handles other small types, like int, long,
float, or double?
