Indeed - thanks, Dmitry! That is much better than what I proposed. I did a quick and dirty JMH test with this code and it looks to be more than 6% faster for double and more than 24% faster for float versus the current codebase. The speed up is probably more than these values which should be considered lower bounds on speed improvement. I have updated the webrev accordingly: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~bpb/8010430/ Approval by a Reviewer of this patch is still needed. Thanks, Brian
