Comment(by vince@…):
I think it's worth switching to ppc64 especially if you do a lot of maths.
G5 has a second AltiVec unit that can switch operations and handle
directly complex number calculations. While it may not boost the overall
performance by a factor of 2 or 3, why not use it since it is there
anyhow? Besides, Ryan rightly pointed out this might have cache side
effects, but Atlas precisely is there to take this into account.
