Perhaps if source code were available (freely and without
restrictions)... although I don't know enough theory to tell whether
this is applicable to X-ray crystallography or not.  However, because
of the way most programs are structured it is unlikely to make a huge
difference in refinement speed in any case - maybe 25% faster, but
certainly not an order of magnitude.
