Re: vForce performance vis-a-vis std C functions



Ian,

Per your suggestions, I reran my original timing experiments using:
(a) mach_absolute_time() for time measurements, and
(b) random (uniformly distributed) input data:
	- 100 * drand48()  for sqrt -vice- vvsqrt tests, &
	- 20π * drand48()  for sin -vice- vvsin tests.

The results are similar to the original set but showing somewhat better vForce/scalar performance in both cases;
	- ~22.5 nsec/input value for vvsqrt()  vice  ~30 nsec for scalar sqrt() loop, &
	- ~44 nsec/input value for vvsin()  vice  ~53 nsec for scalar sin() loop.

These were run, as before, using 10,000 pt input sets and (to my satisfaction) seem in general agreement with your & Jeff Biggus' graphs.
