CPU Optimisation

[bbanelli]

Greetings,

what is the point of "Executable format -> CPU Optimization"?

Manual states

Code: Select all

Note: No PB functions actually support this feature for now (it is ignored for them). However, some User Libraries include such optimizations.

and drop down list includes 3DNow (killed 5 years ago by AMD, was it ever really used that much?) and MMX (18 years)/SSE(16 years)/SSE2(14 years).

So, basically, what good does this option do? Any real life application?

TIA!

It doesn't do anything.
