My belief is that its much more complex than that :) It realy depends how much parellelism there is in your algorithm, PIV / Athlon class cpus can perform more FP operations in parrallel that integer, so, although each float operation can take longer than the equivalent integer operation to execute, the whole inner loop may run in less cycles. That before you even get into SIMD operations. - Steve ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-devel
