All my bitplanes are 64-bit aligned.  If anyone can find any evidence that 128-bit or larger alignment provides an advantage then please tell me.  Thanks.


IIRC the G5 cache lines were 128 bytes long so it makes sense to align them on that scale if you plan on running on a G5 or X1000.

OTOH 64KB doesn't make much sense.
