In the context of binary translation, consider a scenario where the execution is dominated by the repetitive emulation (inside a loop) of the following sequence of translated blocks of code: A, B, C.

- Block A is 5 instructions long, 

- Block B is 10 instructions long, 

- Block C is 15 instructions long, 

- The Emulation Manager requires 5 instructions to execute.

- Each jump instruction takes (naturally) 1 instruction to execute.

What is the most appropriate optimization to employ in this scenario?

What is the average speedup in emulation that could be be obtained by applying such an optimization?

Justify your answers and provide brief reasoning for calculations with the best information available.
