Comment #1 on issue 2228 by [email protected]: Generate SIMD
instructions for SIMD-like code patterns

Yes, that would be nice.
Unfortunately, due to the nature of JavaScript, there are very few
situations where this is actually possible, and detecting them is pretty
expensive. Remember that for JavaScript, compile time is run time, and even
C/C++ compilers have a hard time applying this optimization automatically.
I don't think anyone will work on this is the foreseeable future, which is
why I'm closing the issue. We do accept patches and can always reopen,
though, if you want to figure out a way how to do this!
