I fixed an issue in pixman's Altivec code the other day -- https://cgit.freedesktop.org/pixman/commit/?id=207626180d0282bb14a50f2e494174f54ac8a6ce And in the process, I read through the Altivec docs and discovered that there are vector inst
Ok, big breakthrough in #Altivec Intelligence tonight! Gemini helped me build a modern-ish version of libcurl and openssh in a way that can build for iOS 4.3+ and Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger+. So with this, it is possible to make an app that can do

What “altivec” means
WikipediaAltiVec is a single-precision floating-point and integer SIMD instruction set designed and owned by Apple, IBM, and Freescale Semiconductor — the AIM alliance. It is implemented on versions of the PowerPC processor architecture, including Motorola's G4, IBM's G5 and POWER6 processors, and P.A. Semi's PWRficient PA6T. AltiVec is a trademark owned solely by Freescale, so the system is also referred to as Velocity Engine by Apple and VMX by IBM and P.A. Semi.
