    avutil/lls: speed up performance of solve_lls · 68e79b27
    Ganesh Ajjanagadde authored
    This is a trivial rewrite of the loops that results in better
    prefetching and associated cache efficiency. Essentially, the problem is
    that modern prefetching logic is based on finite state Markov memory, a reasonable
    assumption that is used elsewhere in CPU's in for instance branch
    predictors.
    
    Surrounding loops all iterate forward through the array, making the
    predictor think of prefetching in the forward direction, but the
    intermediate loop is unnecessarily in the backward direction.
    
    Speedup is nontrivial. Benchmarks obtained by 10^6 iterations within
    solve_lls, with START/STOP_TIMER. File is tests/data/fate/flac-16-lpc-cholesky.err.
    Hardware: x86-64, Haswell, GNU/Linux.
