This explains a lot! Now for the hard part: in Pd, 32-bit floating point tables are stored as 64-but 'atoms' for a 50% hit in memory efficiency. Something Must Be Done; but what?
OTOH, I'm falling out of my chair for joy that there's finally a way to write C code that doesn't choke on denormals. Life is indeed really simple, but I remain baffled :) M > when compiling for x86_64, floating-point opertations are generated for > the sse unit instead of the fpu ... > seeing the increased number of xmm registers, less memory operations > need to be used ... e.g. second order systems (biquad) can be computed > in registers only ... > another nice side-effect is the more robust handling of denormal numbers > on the sse unit ... > > tim > > -- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ: 96771783 > http://tim.klingt.org > > Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated. > Confucius _______________________________________________ PD-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-dev
