I starred a the code a bit, but I don't see the problem here. match is
always <= 3 so if it is 3 in one iteration best increases to 3 and clk
isn't touched anymore. The other statements in the loop have no side
effects either.
Apart from that a while back I thought about removing
if (match == 0)
continue;
as if match is 0 the next if condition is false. I don't remember why I
didn't do it. Maybe I checked the generated code and it made no
difference.
Best regards
Uwe
