faster than Vampire too except FPU.

With the Vampire not having FPU - what on earth do you mean?

EDIT: Oh.. FLOPS.

C'mon Kolla, don't play dumb. You know that already.


Only after watching the video.

People (myself included) seem to mix things, making it hard to know what people are talking about.

FPU - floating point unit, either as dedicated processor or as part of CPU.

SoftFPU - a product for old macs, emulating FPU - hence also sometimes used as a generic term for FPU emulator, for example in the Linux kernel.

Softfloat - handling floating point in software without involving FPU, real or emulated.

I notice that I have myself got the two latter mixed up on a few occasion, not sure why, but why not blame it on beer :)
