family=6 for core2 always (family=15 is p4)
model=15 for "normal" core2 and xeon
model=22 (=16h), for celeron (I assume core2-celeron)
model=23 (=17h), for "extreme" core2,
I'm starting a new thread for Toom related stuff, as our last thread
got a bit messed up. :-)
I did a calculation of how much better Toom 4 should be than Toom 3.
But it didn't really show what I thought it would. My hypothesis was
that for numbers of limbs that are a power of 2, Toom 4 should be
One of the issues which will confront us soon is the fact that Intel
have stopped upping clock rates and have started introducing more
cores, and AMD have followed suit.
I predict that eventually we are going to want to start distinguishing
these. Perhaps we need:
k8, k8x2, , core, corex2, core2
For amd we'd have to have:
K5, K6 (mmx), k62 (k6-2, mmx, 3dnow), k63 (k6-III, mmx, 3dnow), k7
(mmx, 3dnow), k7sse, k8 (all sse2), k8sse3, k10, geode?
It looks to me like k9 never materialised, and if it did, it
represents dual core AMD k8's. k11 is supposedly Turion Ultra.

Jason,
I had a look over this and it looks brilliant. This really deals with
a number of tickets, which is great!
Some comments:
The name athlon seems inconsistent with k5, k6, k62, k63, k8, k10. It
seems to me that Athlon and k7 are synonymous, so shouldn't we use the
latter?
I also wonder if

Hi Guys,
I desperately need some advice on my local SVN setup.
Right now I have this pointed at the MPIR top level directory. This
has been tolerable until now but when I updated today it cost me 10%
