Local fix

Problem summary

  • A fix for an earlier bug made the jit compiler more
    conservative, causing it to miss a valid optimization
    opportunity in the conversion routines during induction variable
    analysis.
    

Problem conclusion

  • This defect will be fixed in:
    7.0.0 SR4
    6.0.1 SR5
    .
    The jit compiler's induction variable analysis was improved to
    find the optimization opportunity that restored character
    conversion performance.
