Yours perhaps optimizes to much, since 2 'e' seems to have been lost. :-)

The x86 architecture is crappy. Trying to optimize to much these shit
seems to lead to tons of firmware bugs, IMO.
I just cross fingers for the next generation of affordable processors
to be clean.
Do you have some results about the same algorithm running on some clean
architecture as ALPHA (and using 64 bit calculations) ?
