Dear Freddie,

Thanks a lot for your reply.

Could you please tell me whether in your estimations you considered all 
floating-points operations: +, -, *, /, fabs, sqrt, ... as of the same 
type, or applied some sort of conversion to express that some are typically 
more expensive than others, such as "/" or "sqrt"?

Best regards,
Antonio
