I'd be glad to take a look at the code you actually tried. It would be helpful
if you actually provided it, instead of just this "I tried it, I'm giving up
now" sort of thing.
I was also hoping you'd take the time to split this out into a userspace
micro-benchmark program that we could quickly try different approaches on.
BTW, even if people are okay with dynamic code generation (which seems
unlikely?), you'll still need a C version for architectures that you haven't
implemented the dynamic code generation for.
