there needs a check for each iteration with this change. If N is large, the previous version can save a significant amount of instructions

For large values of N, the CPU branch predictor should be able to predict this branch pretty easily. It will only miss at the very last iteration for the tail but when N is large, one single branch miss should hardly matter in terms of performance. It does bring the benefit of processing the entire array contained in a single loop.
