Well, first and foremost, it does not *work* with our current mailing list setup. Also, anything x- only makes sense if you know the software the receiver runs (and of course you don't, this is public email, with hundreds or thousands of readers). > > Can you share a geomean improvement as well?

Sjeng is very jumpy code, so of course your patch will influence it a lot. No idea why it is less positive this run. > The > overall ratio comparing spec rates is +~0.44%. Yup, a nice healthy improvement :-) Segher
