Better integrate the 0,1,2,4 bytes mode

lemire opened this issue 6 years ago · comments

Following this PR #26 we now have code that can use a 0,1,2,4 byte encoding. However, it is basically achieved through pure code duplication. Worse: it does not benefit from @aqrit 's latest improvements.

Obviously, we could do better.

33% faster, 75% smaller.

If I ever find a good way to organize the files and tables... I'll turn this into a commit.
