Kapkan, type the whole thing up and send it to me, and I'll find a Pentium 4 PC to run it on. However, I can already guarantee you're wrong about performance. Even a lowly 2-bit smith algorithm can predict the kind of branches that you're using 99.9999% of the time. After (at most) two consecutive branches, your code has a chain of Strongly Not-Taken branches, and these will be easily predicted by the Pentium 4 Static Predictor. The Dynamic Predictor is even smarter than this, so perhaps the success rate would be even higher than I am predicting. I bet you on sheer clock speed alone, as well as the double-pumped ALUs, that your code would run faster on a 2.0GHz Pentium 4 than on the fastest Athlon available. :-) wbmw
