In MS you can insert SSE intrinsics , which still allow the compiler to optimise the execution order and memory/register usage e.g. based on cycle counts. I understand (from other sources) that the Intel vectorising compilers are much better at this, naturally. Perhaps this is then all only aMS/Windows thing? David
