The statistics are going to be very different for different scenarios.
Yes, I know.
For example, network operations seem to be the majority of your large memcpys, this isn't the case for everyone.
True. I noticed it after sending -- although I expected it.
In any case, my only suggestion would be that if we're improving memcpy()/memset(), do the extra 10% of effort required to make them a little better. That 10% of effort will improve 15.2% of all memcpy() calls for the foreseeable future:)
It mainly depends on Wolfgang but, hey, it's not 10% of effort.
I promise I won't comment on future patches:)
No problem at all. And I apologize if my tone looked rude, it wasn't meant to. Thank you for your comments.
/alessandro, who didn't notice ppc has an asm implementation of its own
