Comment (by bookmoons):

 I have a first build of a skeleton asm version. This is promising.

 Numbers from the new command line (with my poor exploratory code mentioned
 above). Now timing just the one call as recommended.

 {{{
 21340  Plain C
 19609  New VSX optimized
  6214  Altivec optimized
 }}}

 It does help stabilize. With the old command the first run would sometimes
 be wildly higher. There are a few lines with skips now, so I'm taking the
 last line with 0-2 skips.
