So does this mean you're going to add AVX support?

That's an interesting idea, although I was not thinking about it

You can easily test it by compiling an AVX only version. AVX uses the same intrinsic functions as SSE2 and stuff. So you just have to tell the compiler to use AVX instructions.

For the Intel compiler:
icl /QxAVX
icc -xAVX

MS Visual Studio compiler flag:
/arch:AVX

GCC compiler flag:
-mavx
