safeeft
Safe and branchless error-free transformation algorithms for floating point numbers.
Now supports types which impl num_traits::Float and size of bits of its significand is odd (Because Float does not offer its size).
Benchmark
With nightly compiler, execute
$ cargo +nightly bench
If your CPU has fma target-feature,
$ RUSTFLAGS='-C target-cpu=native' cargo +nightly bench --features use-fma
If your CPU does not have fma and compile and run with this command, ***_fma will work very slowly due to software emulation of fma.
Sample result
- compiler: rustc 1.23.0-nightly
- CPU: Intel Core i5-4570(Haswell)@3.20GHz
