Patches now committed.
Hey Richard,
Thanks for taking on some of these issues. I'm not seeing much of an
improvement yet when manually applying the patches to 4.7, but it looks
like steps in the right direction. Having to turn off vectorization to
approximate previous compiler performance was disappointing given it's
supposed to give us a boost on some of these architectures ;)
Would it be possible to commit these to 4_7-branch as well? (One of the
patches looks relevant to 4.6 as well, and applied cleanly, but I haven't
tested to see if it had a noticeable effect.)
Thanks again!
