I looked at different memcpy routines for transcode and found that the
optimized memcpy presented in AMD's Optimization guide was easily twice
as fast as the libc version. I'd be willing to bet that 3-4x would be
possible on Athlon64s (because it has twice the number of SSE
registers). Works on aligned and unaligned data too, so it is a drop in
replacement. I've never looked at the renderer implementation in
MythTV, would this be a worthwhile optimization?
