2016-06-03 Thread Wilco Dijkstra
Increase loop alignment on Cortex cores to 8 and set function alignment to 16. This makes things consistent across big.LITTLE cores, improves performance of benchmarks with tight loops and reduces performance variations due to small changes in code layout. It looks almost all AArch64 cores agre
