Hi all, Last year the POWER8 and POWER9 specific improvements (for PowerPC) were completely rewritten, but as of yet no accurate performance tests of these have been performed. I have validated functionality and rough performance checks for these through Travis CI, but the numbers I get through that vary wildly.
Recently the C code that these improvements mirror has been changed to allow compilers to autovectorize it. It would be nice if someone with access to POWER hardware could compare builds with and without POWER specific improvements. In other words, a plain build and one with either --disable-asm-optimizations (for autotools build) or -DWITH_ASM=0 (for CMake). If anyone could do such a comparison, that would be great! Kind regards, Martijn van Beurden _______________________________________________ flac-dev mailing list flac-dev@xiph.org http://lists.xiph.org/mailman/listinfo/flac-dev
