.. _slp-vectorizer:
The SLP Vectorizer
==========================
The SLP vectorizer (superword-level parallelism) is a new experimental
infrastructure for vectorizing code and rolling loops.
A major focus of the work on the SLP vectorizer is to make it fast and
flexible. It is designed as a library that can be used by other passes.
The SLP vectorizer is in early development stages but can already vectorize
and accelerate many programs in the LLVM test suite.
