It would be interesting to see if the same could be achieved with 3DNow! instructions, as this would provide a welcome boost for anyone with an AMD K6-2 or K6-3 or any of the other 3DNow! capable CPU's. I'm sure there are also a number of other platforms that could use in-line assembly to do the same (eg: PPC/Altivec). Out of interest, how much in-line assembly code are you referring to? Anywhere some of us can get a look-see?
