Hi,
I'm trying to make my program read the content at a known memory address as fast as it can. I tried declaring that memory location as a variable (say 'aaaaa') normally as below:

unsigned int * aaaaa = (unsigned int *) 0xA0000008;

It compiled and retrieved the memory content at 0xA0000008 properly for me, except it took many assembly codes. This is because aaaaa is mapped to an internal code (say '012345')...
