flac dev - May 2014 - Performance tests of the current version (git-b1b6caf)

Current sources (git-b1b6caf) were compiled with GCC 4.8.2 and GCC 4.9.0
with various -msseN options (the default is -msse2). Then I took two WAV
files (one is 16-bit and the other is 24-bit) and compressed them using
best compression mode. The results are in the table below.
(please remember that the resulting value is an encoding time, not encoding
speed)


CPU: Intel Core i7 950 (up to SSE4.2)
FLAC version: git-b1b6caf
Encoding option: -8
Result: encoding time, seconds (less is better)

-----------------------------------------------------------
                               16 bit input
-m option |     32 bit codec      |     64 bit codec

Looks good, thanks!
