HM, Re: Maybe my last post will change your mind (the one with benchmarks I ran myself)
No, it doesn't, because quicksorting is one of the areas where I can see a benefit from extra registers. Sort algorithms happen to have tight loops that can be highly optimized by modern compilers. I wouldn't doubt that this is one area where AMD compiler writers have put a great deal of focus, since it is a common primitive. Not all applications use frequent quicksorts, however.
