Hmm! That's un interesting question. Have something working quickly or
have something powerfull ?

I imagine that use SIMD code are quite difficult so it's intersting to
see if it miss some instructions to use all the power of the SIMD stuff.
i know that one of the most problematic things are the instruction that
pack the data, maybe we miss some.
