the biggest problem, the compiler faces, is not only the loop itself, but memory alignment and aliasing ... if the compiler doesn't allocate the memory itself, it's unlikely that it generates decent vectorized code ... so, i suppose, the performance gain of auto-vectorization for pd is more or less placebo but iirc, there is an -ftree-vectorizer-verbose option for gcc to get some information from the vectorizer ... cheers ... tim -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ: 96771783 http://www.mokabar.tk Which is more musical, a truck passing by a factory or a truck passing by a music school?
