Liboil is a library of simple functions that are optimized for various CPUs.
|
|
These functions are generally loops implementing simple algorithms, such as
|
|
converting an array of N integers to floating-point numbers or multiplying
|
|
and summing an array of N numbers. Clearly such functions are candidates for
|
|
significant optimization using various techniques, especially by using
|
|
extended instructions provided by modern CPUs (Altivec, MMX, SSE, etc.).
|
|
|
|
Many multimedia applications and libraries already do similar things
|
|
internally. The goal of this project is to consolidate some of the code used
|
|
by various multimedia projects, and also make optimizations easier to use by
|
|
a broad range of applications.
