Anders Cedronius: Intrinsic speed freak, the good, the bad and the ugly

What are intrinsics? How do we access them from C++ and why would anyone want to do that? This talk will introduce you to the basics of intrinsic programming, we’re looking at some examples, how various compilers deal with them and syntax variants. What are some of the drawbacks? We’ll also scratch the surface of the speed freaks best friend SIMD.
