i think the article is confused. i write quite a bit of SIMD code for HPC and c is my goto for low level computing because of the low level memory allocation in c. In fact that tends to be the lion share of work to implement simd operations where memory isn't the bottleneck. if only it were as simple as calling vfmadd132ps on two datatypes.
