Hi Adrian, We do believe that there's such a runtime detection in the latest upstream commit that we're attempting to push to Debian. We really do want to push SSE support, as this improve the performances by several order of magnitude, which is quite important for things like storage. Without it, erasure coding is almost unusable. Fix is on its way. Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)
