I would have thought that if there is much optimising to be done it will be in loading up all the registers and doing lots of SSE instructions in parallel. Presumably the challenge will be organising traffic to and from the registers so that we don't get spikes from loading registers simultaneously. Rather we'd have to load one pair of registers whilst simultaneously adding together another pair whilst simultaneously writing out the result of a third. That kind of thing. Am I on the right track or am I way off the mark? Regards, Max.
