I did test with jconvover ... I had to dig in old emails exchanged with
Free Ekanayaka.
I was 4 years ago! ;)
Used flags -mmmx -msse -mfpmath=sse
Improvement in performance wasn't so huge ... it was about 15% ... sorry
for my bad memory.
Testing also haven't been very scientific just running as much as possible
instances of jconvolver until first xruns in Jack.
