There are already many places in the J interpreter where there are quite a few possible optimizations, but the only ones that are implemented are ones involving frequently-used operations. For example, there is already some special code in -/ .* Deteriminant and +/ .* Matrix Multiply. If symmetric matrix operations are important, +/ .* could be specifically optimized without necessarily having to optimize the general case of u/ .v -- Mark D.
