    runtime: faster x86 memmove (a.k.a. built-in copy()) · 60214492
    Keith Randall authored
    REP instructions have a high startup cost, so we handle small
    sizes with some straightline code.  The REP MOVSx instructions
    are really fast for large sizes.  The cutover is approximately
    1K.  We implement up to 128/256 because that is the maximum
    SSE register load (loading all data into registers before any
    stores lets us ignore copy direction).
