The only change is:
I just did a quick benchmark on my single core 3700+:2.9013-499 imp: x86: Faster OGR MMX cores (1-3%, depending on CPU)
v498:
(new) v499:OGR-P2: Benchmark for core #4 (GARSP 6.0-asm-rt1-mmx-amd)
0.00:00:17.89 [32,357,406 nodes/sec]
It appears to be about a 1% improvement, but this is small enough to just have been a difference of system usage whilst the benchmarks were running (even though I left it as idle as possible).OGR-P2: Benchmark for core #4 (GARSP 6.0-asm-rt1-mmx-amd)
