Hi, >(Btw, it looks like Marti has also coded some stuff in assembly >language, but appearently for Windows only. So I'm also wondering how >much LCMS runs faster on Windows than on Linux)
Almost nothing. That comes from an early version of lcms, which was windows only. These routines does very specific things, like fixed point multiplication and curve interpolation. In recent versions, I'm trying to reduce the amount of asm to minimum. Don't even discard eliminating it completely, since the speed gain is almost null and definitively not worth of the induced complexity. Most times you can do same in C, the trick is, write C code thinking in assembler :-) ... And there are some excellent routines submitted by Stuart Nixon that minimizes stalls. I am going to incorporate them in next revision, so maybe we can even get a bit more of performance. However, don't expect miracles, all optimization have a limit.
