This came to my mind during the latest batch of optimizations... For more than 20 years, I was always trying to implement big-endian path for low-level code, but frankly U++ never really run on big-endian hardware ever, so those chunks of code are completely untested... There are basically no modern big-endian platforms. Maybe it is time to stop caring?
