[XviD-devel] Does Xvid support SSE3?

[Michael Militzer]

Hi,

there is some SSE3 code on cvs and some more will follow. But in general
one can say that SSE3 does not really provide many new instructions that
are useful for Xvid. So the benefits from SSE3 in Xvid will certainly
be rather limited...

Regards,
Michael
