617+ [ ultraviolet] by [ @termhn ] is a crate to do basic, computer-graphics-related,
618+ linear algebra, but fast, by taking full advantage of [ SIMD] .
619+
620+ > <...> To do this, it uses an "SoA" ([ Structure of Arrays] [ aos_soa ] )
621+ > architecture such that each Wec (wide-vec) actually contains the data
622+ > for 4 Vecs and will do any operation on all 4 of the vector 'lanes'
623+ > at the same time.
624+ > Doing this is potentially much (factor of 10) faster than
625+ > an "AoS" ([ Array of Structs] [ aos_soa ] ) layout,
626+ > as all current Rust linear algebra libraries do, depending on your work load.
627+ > However, algorithms must be carefully architected
628+ > to take full advantage of this, and doing so can be easier said than done,
629+ > especially if your algorithm involves significant branching.
