Date: Tue, 10 Mar 1998 16:51:16 -0800 (PST) From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@transmeta.com> The only compelling reason to use MMX is actually that you could in theory do copy-and-ipv4-csum with them. Peter Anvin had some code that would probably work, but it was complex enough that it was not clear whether it would really be a win.. Pointers to this? I'm curious if it looks similar to the VIS version we wrote for the Ultra port. Later, David S.
