Yeah I really wanted to dig into AlitVec a bit more, but by the time I took a look at it, we had moved on to Intel. So I just tried to use the OS X vector libraries where possible, and hope for the best.
There was a paper that really got my attention, from US Air Force research I think, that reported a micro benchmark on a Mac Mini G4 where the AltiVec scores blew away their best Silicon Graphics beast.
The M1 reports feel a lot like that. Or better, because of the reports coming in on huge performance gains in real world apps.
