[flac-dev] About SSE intrinsincs in decoder

[olivier tristan]

Hi All,

Hi Martijn,

I have just seen this commit

https://github.com/xiph/flac/commit/febff86af03d2ccbdd4826c9555336916eb6ecb3

While I can understand the rationale for manual assembly as 32 bits x86 
is dead, it seems a greater deal to remove all optimization including 
intrinsic ones.

Maybe there should be a an opt in if you don't want to be included by 
default but some people including me don't want to see those 
optimization been removed ?

I rely a lot on decoding speed as I work on musical instrument sample 
based :)

Thanks !
