Re: [PATCH] v12 Improves __ieee754_exp() performance by 6-11% on aarch64/sparc/x86.


Further study confirmed that the existing code is as fast
or faster on several platforms when not following my code's
fast path, but my code runs faster when |x|  < 1.0397.

That being the case, I will be submitting a patch with
just the fast path added to the existing code. That should
give us the best of both approaches until such time as
Szabolcs Nagy's investigation gives better results.
