Description

Hello, I would like to know if it is possible to have ARM's SIMD (neon) routines to be added in huff0 and/or FSE encode/decode parts? That way, I can make them run a bit faster on raspberry pi.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the huff0 and FSE encode/decode entry points and the existing architecture-specific code, if any. Check how ARM NEON is detected and supported on Raspberry Pi, then define the affected routines and a way to compare their performance. Done means a focused SIMD implementation with correctness coverage and evidence of faster ARM execution.
