Hi,
Thanks again for measuring this.

mjpegenc and aacsbr-2 contains simple accumulation without
load/store dependence and thus SMS succeeds to improve them.
aacsbr-1 also contains such accumul

OK, here's a comparison of:
-mcpu=cortex-a8 -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=softfp -mvectorize-with-neon-quad
-fno-auto-inc-dec
vs:
-mcpu=cortex-a8 -mfpu=ne

Yeah, thats indeed looks impressive!
btw, do you also have numbers of how much SMS (hopefully) improves
performance on top of the vectorized code?
Thanks,
