Liboil is a library of simple functions that are optimized for
various CPUs. These functions are generally loops implementing
simple algorithms, such as converting an array of N integers to
floating-point numbers or multiplying and summing an array of N
numbers. Such functions are candidates for significant optimization
using various techniques, especially by using extended instructions
provided by modern CPUs (Altivec, MMX, SSE, etc.).
