Hi Alessandro, No interest in the suggestion to not require count to be an exact multiple of 4/8? I don't think it would be that hard to update the logic accordingly and this would let your code be utilized much more often, especially if/when we run on a 64-bit machine. Conceptually it seems like a cleaner implementation too, but that's probably just my preference:)
Best, Peter
