----------------
Since there can be more than one candidate would there ever be any advantage to looking deeper in the list?  Some bases could be cheaper (eg, where i' - i == 1 and you don't need a multiply).  However, I'd guess in the common unrolled case the latest candidate on the list is best.  On the other hand though, from an ILP perspective the earliest candidate might be best.
