Build

with gcc:

gcc -O3 -msse2 FastMemcpy.c -o FastMemcpy

with msvc:

cl -nologo -O2 FastMemcpy.c

Features

  • 50% speedup in avg. vs traditional memcpy in msvc 2012 or gcc 4.9
  • small size copy optimized with jump table
  • medium size copy optimized with sse2 vector copy
  • huge size copy optimized with cache prefetch & movntdq

Reference

Using Block Prefetch for Optimized Memory Performance

The article only focused on aligned huge memory copy. You need handle other conditions by your self.
