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](http://files.rsdn.ru/23380/AMD_block_prefetch_paper.pdf)
The article only focused on aligned huge memory copy. You need handle other conditions by your self.
