I need to run a matrix-vector multiplication 240000 times per second. The matrix is 5×5 and is always the same, whereas the vector changes at each iteration. The data type is float. I was thinking of using some SSE (or similar) instructions.

  1. I am concerned that the number of arithmetic operations is too small compared to the number of memory operations involved. Do you think I can get some tangible (e.g. > 20%) improvement?

  2. Do I need the Intel compiler to do it?

  3. Can you point out some references?

    The Eigen C++ template library for vectors, matrices, … has both

    • optimised code for small fixed size matrices (as well as dynamically sized ones)

    • optimised code that uses SSE optimisations

    so you should give it a try.
