[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] lavc/aacenc_utils: unroll quantize_bands loop

[Ganesh Ajjanagadde]

Yields speedup in quantize_bands, and non-negligible speedup in aac encoding 
overall.

Sample benchmark (Haswell, -march=native + GCC):
new:
    [...]
    553 decicycles in quantize_bands, 2097136 runs,     16 skips9x
    554 decicycles in quantize_bands, 4194266 runs,     38 skips8x
    559 decicycles in quantize_bands, 8388534 runs,     74 skips7x

old:
    [...]
    711 decicycles in quantize_bands, 2097140 runs,     12 skips7x
    713 decicycles in quantize_bands, 4194277 runs,     27 skips4x
    715 decicycles in quantize_bands, 8388538 runs,     70 skips3x

old:
ffmpeg -f lavfi -i anoisesrc -t 300 -y sin_new.aac  4.58s user 0.01s system 99% 
cpu 4.590 total

new:
ffmpeg -f lavfi -i anoisesrc -t 300 -y sin_new.aac  4.54s user 0.02s system 99% 
cpu 4.566 total
