That's floating-point logarithms, not Integer logarithms. Single-precision floats, at that. The code in question does not link at optimisation level 4. At least some of the benchmark results are impossible to believe: benching cephes_sinf .. -> 12762.3 millions of vector evaluations/second -> 0 cycles/value on a 2000MHz computer _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
