| Sep 7, 2015 at 12:42 | comment | added | Thomas Erker | @TobySpeight Think of SSE4 and such. Might only bite you if you use assembler. | |
| Sep 7, 2015 at 12:33 | comment | added | Toby Speight | Why is "instruction set" called a "bonus"? If you distribute in binary form, you really do need to consider which ISAs you'll be compiling for. You might not care for m68k users, but it's hard to ignore ARM, IA32 and X86_64 at least. | |
