[htdig-dev] Improving speed of htdig on mac os x

[Gustave T. Stresen-R. <ted...@ma...>]

One way to improve the speed of htdig on mac os x is to take advantage 
of the AltiVec processor. I don't know anything about how to do this, 
but in reading some documentation I ran across a document says that 
"Existing C code written for serial execution" can take advantage of 
the AltiVec processor.

If someone on the list knows whether or not the htdig source contains 
"C code written for serial execution" and can point me to it, I can 
explore what would be needed to get the code to take advantage of the 
processor.
