Writing code with SIMD for vectorization is painful. It deserves a blog series to record all sorts of pains I have encountered and (partially) overcome. Indeed, once the pain of coding and debugging is finished, the program is lightning-faster. Nonetheless, I am here to complain instead of praising. Let me state why writing SIMD code is causing me emotional damage: a single line of normal c++ code could be easily inflated to a dozen lines of code....

The content of this post is extracted from my previous random notes. I am too lazy to update and organize it 🦥. C++17 new feature – parallel algorithms The parallel algorithms and execution policies are introduced in C++17. Unfortuantely, according to CppReference, only GCC and Intel support these features. Clang still leaves them unimplemented. A blog about it. The parallel library brough by C++17 requires the usage of Intel’s oneTBB for multithreading....
