+This directory contains code for x86-64 processors with fast
+implementations of SSE operations, hence the name "fastsse".
+
+Current processors that might benefit from this code are:
+
+ AMD K10
+ AMD Bulldozer/Piledriver/Steamroller/Excavator
+ Intel Nocona
+ Intel Nehalem/Westmere
+ Intel Sandybridge/Ivybridge
+ Intel Haswell/Broadwell
+ VIA Nano
+
+Current processors that do not benefit from this code are:
+
+ AMD K8
+ AMD Bobcat
+ Intel Atom
+
+Intel Conroe/Penryn is a border case; its handling of non-aligned
+128-bit memory operands is poor. VIA Nano also have poor handling of
+non-aligned operands.
