Actually FP isn't that bad -- I'd largely avoided it for decades, but didn't have a choice earlier this year.  And there's a lot more headroom for improvements in the FP space than the integer space IMHO.

One of the more interesting ones is to try to limit the range of the input to the trigonometric functions - that way you could use ones without any argument reduction phase ...
