I don't know why everyone makes a big deal about Altivec.

Because AltiVec makes it possible to write faster programs.

I didn't realize altivec could be used to speed up compression/decompression.


Another area of AltiVec application is cryptography.

For some real numbers you can read my scientific papers on AltiVec accelerations of audio filtering (results of this research are implemented in Reggae classes), see items 6. 7. and 8. DigiFilter is a live demo of this technology.
