commit broke the 2**24 cases where |x| > DBL_MAX/2. There are exponent range problems not just for denormals (underflow) but for large values (overflow). Doubles have more than enough exponent range to avoid the problems, but I forgot to convert enough terms to double, so there was an x+x term which was sometimes evaluated in float precision. Unfortunately, this is a pessimization with some combinations of systems and compilers (it makes no difference on Athlon XP's, but on Athlon64's it gives a 5% pessimization with gcc-3.4 but not with gcc-3.3). Exlain the problem better in comments. |
