Michael Sokolov resolved LUCENE-9679.
-------------------------------------
    Resolution: Won't Fix

this was never a great idea, and now we have other patches achieving its stated 
aim

> Try using Math.fma to speed up vector computations

>                 Key: LUCENE-9679
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-9679
>             Project: Lucene - Core
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>            Reporter: Michael Sokolov
>            Priority: Major
>
> On the mailing list, Anton Hägerstrand <an...@blunders.io> posted a link to a 
> blog post showing hotspots in our indexing: 
> https://blunders.io/posts/lucene-bench-2021-01-10 and identified vecto dot 
> product computations as one of them. Not surprising in itself, but he also 
> suggested we might want to try using {{Math.fma}} in the computation to see 
> if it can optimize the multiply-and-add operation that is at the heart of 
> both the dot product and l2-norm distance.
