Description

I think SIMD optimizations are the main reason to use this package (but maybe there are more uses that I don't know about). In any case, SIMD is important. But it is not mentioned in the README.

If this package does facilitate SIMD optimizations, I think this should be mentioned in the README, with an example or two showing benchmarks. I'd really like to see some examples of this. And I think that if this is showcased, it would attract more users to the package.

Start by reviewing the README and the issue's request about SIMD support, then verify whether the package facilitates SIMD optimizations. Done means the README clearly documents the confirmed capability and includes one or two benchmark examples, or clearly explains if the premise is unsupported.
