OK here we go,
Included is a patch for MMX/MMX2/SSE optimized memcpy(). If you choose
MY_CPU=i386 in makefile.unix, the code autodetects if your CPU & OS support
the above extensions and enable appropriate optimization. Therefore, I assume
it will run on any i386 CPU (according to the source, these memcpy() are 10%
upto 500%, 5 times, faster than non-MMX optimized memcpy()).
The code is actually a rip-off from the xine source tree, which in turn is a
rip off from mplayer code, which in turn is a rip off from linux kernel code.
Don't you love open source software ?
I removed PowerPC optimized memcpy() from xine code because I have no machine
to test.
BEFORE applying the patch, please run the following script to change almost
all appearance of memcpy in mame source to xmame_fast_memcpy. Please run this
in the parent directory of your xmame directory (xmame-0.61.1-pr9 in my
case).
#!/bin/bash
# change all appearance of memcpy into xmame_fast_memcpy
for file in `find xmame-0.61.1-pr9 -type f -name '*.[ch]' | egrep -v
"contrib|m68kmake|md5"`
do
grep "memcpy" $file > /dev/null
if [ $? = 0 ]; then
sed -e "s/memcpy/xmame_fast_memcpy/g" $file > ./aaaaaaaa.aaa
mv -f ./aaaaaaaa.aaa $file
fi
done
# script ends here ########################
Now, you can patch the modified code with the following diff file. It adds two
files fastmcpy.c and fastmcpy.h into src/unix, at the line
#include "fastmcpy.h" into several main header files. It also add a call to
xmame_probe_fast_memcpy() in main.c to probe the best memcpy() method.

+ This part of code was taken by me from Linux-2.4.3 and slightly modified
+for MMX, MMX2, SSE instruction set. I have done it since linux uses page
aligned
+blocks but mplayer uses weakly ordered data and original sources can not
+speedup them. Only using PREFETCHNTA and MOVNTQ together have effect!
+
+>From IA-32 Intel Architecture Software Developer's Manual Volume 1,
+
+Order Number 245470:
+"10.4.6. Cacheability Control, Prefetch, and Memory Ordering Instructions"
+
+Data referenced by a program can be temporal (data will be used again) or
+non-temporal (data will be referenced once and not reused in the immediate
+future). To make efficient use of the processor's caches, it is generally
+desirable to cache temporal data and not cache non-temporal data. Overloading
+the processor's caches with non-temporal data is sometimes referred to as
+"polluting the caches".
+The non-temporal data is written to memory with Write-Combining semantics.
+
+The PREFETCHh instructions permits a program to load data into the processor
+at a suggested cache level, so that it is closer to the processors load and
+store unit when it is needed. If the data is already present in a level of
+the cache hierarchy that is closer to the processor, the PREFETCHh
instruction
+will not result in any data movement.
+But we should you PREFETCHNTA: Non-temporal data fetch data into location
+close to the processor, minimizing cache pollution.
+
+The MOVNTQ (store quadword using non-temporal hint) instruction stores
+packed integer data from an MMX register to memory, using a non-temporal
hint.
+The MOVNTPS (store packed single-precision floating-point values using
+non-temporal hint) instruction stores packed floating-point data from an
+XMM register to memory, using a non-temporal hint.
+
+The SFENCE (Store Fence) instruction controls write ordering by creating a
+fence for memory store operations. This instruction guarantees that the
results
+of every store instruction that precedes the store fence in program order is
+globally visible before any store instruction that follows the fence. The
+SFENCE instruction provides an efficient way of ensuring ordering between
+procedures that produce weakly-ordered data and procedures that consume that
+data.
+
+If you have questions please contact with me: Nick Kurshev:
