A question got up to me. What exactly are the pro's of using SSE2 as flag in your build? What kind of things can it speed up if the processor supports it?


SSE2 tells compiler to use SSE2 for FP arithmetics in 32-bit SSE2 x86 builds. (In 64-bit builds, it is alsways on).

Cons: Executable will not work on CPUs without SSE2 - SSE2 is supported since PentiumIV and Athlon 64, basically for more than 10 years now...
