This normally gives a 2 time speed up in the RSA 11251883Speterroutines. 12251883Speter 13251883SpeterFor the DEC alpha, I also hand wrote the assember (except the division which 14251883Speteris just the output from the C compiler pasted on the end of the file). 15251883SpeterOn the 2 alpha C compilers I had access to, it was not possible to do 16251883Speter64b x 64b -> 128b calculations (both long and the long long data types 17251883Speterwere 64 bits). So the hand assember gives access to the 128 bit result and 18251883Spetera 2 times speedup :-). 19251883Speter 20251883SpeterThere are 3 versions of assember for the HP PA-RISC. 21251883Speter 22251883Speterpa-risc.s is the origional one which works fine and generated using gcc :-) 23251883Speter 24251883Speterpa-risc2W.s and pa-risc2.s are 64 and 32-bit PA-RISC 2.0 implementations 25251883Speterby Chris Ruemmler from HP (with some help from the HP C compiler). 26251883Speter 27251883Speter</OBSOLETE> 28251883Speter
