Docs: Document supported hardware architectures

Description
I have checked the documentation but did not find any word about supported architectures - only about supported operating systems.

Could you please put the information about supported architectures to the documentation please? E.e. about supported architectures for different operating systems, some specific requirements to the supported instructions, if you have any (e.g. maybe AVX is required - I do not know).

This kind of information is important for the end-users.

Thanks in advance!

Hey, thank you for noting this. These are the current expectations around hardware:

  • Intel x86 based systems: We expect the target processor to support SSE2 instructions. Almost all Intel processors from 2000 support this. AMD has supported SSE2 since 2003. TL;DR almost all machines with processors released after the year 2000, should work
  • ARM64 based systems: No current architecture specific instruction requirements

I will also add this to the documentation. Sorry that we missed it out in the first place
