AVX build of llr
Gary Craig (http://www.primegrid.com/show_user.php?userid=52890), a member of Aggie The Pew (http://www.primegrid.com/team_display.php?teamid=2280), was successful in compiling an AVX version of LLR using gwnum v27.2 and LLR v3.8.6dev. We've been testing it for the past week with success. Depending on the LLR project, speed improvements range from 20% to 50%.

Just in case you were wondering, the AVX extensions are for the Bulldozer chips.
Oh, ok then. They are also for Sandy Bridge and Ivy Bridge as well. ;)
