Abstract
A method for increasing the speed of execution by a processor including the steps of selecting a sequence of instructions to optimize, optimizing the sequence of instructions, creating a duplicate of instructions from the sequence of instructions which has been selected to optimize, executing the optimized sequence of instructions, and responding to an error during the execution of the optimized sequence of instructions by rolling back to the duplicate of instructions from the sequence of instructions.
