Ganesh Ajjanagadde bd9c58756a lavc/aacenc_utils: replace sqrtf(Q*sqrtf(Q)) by precomputed value
It makes no sense whatsoever to do this at each function call; we
already have a table for this.

Yields a 2x improvement in find_min_book (x86-64, Haswell+GCC):
ffmpeg -i sin.flac -acodec aac -y sin.aac
find_min_book
old
    605 decicycles in find_min_book, 8388453 runs,    155 skips.9x
    606 decicycles in find_min_book,16776912 runs,    304 skips.9x
    607 decicycles in find_min_book,33553819 runs,    613 skips.2x
    607 decicycles in find_min_book,67107668 runs,   1196 skips.3x
    607 decicycles in find_min_book,134215360 runs,   2368 skips3x

    359 decicycles in find_min_book, 8388552 runs,     56 skips.3x
    360 decicycles in find_min_book,16777112 runs,    104 skips.1x
    361 decicycles in find_min_book,33554218 runs,    214 skips.4x
    361 decicycles in find_min_book,67108381 runs,    483 skips.5x
    361 decicycles in find_min_book,134216725 runs,   1003 skips5x

and more importantly a non-negligible speedup (~ 8%) to overall AAC encoding:
old:
ffmpeg -i sin.flac -acodec aac -strict -2 -y sin_new.aac  6.82s user 0.03s system 104% cpu 6.565 total
new:
ffmpeg -i sin.flac -acodec aac -strict -2 -y sin_old.aac  6.24s user 0.03s system 104% cpu 5.993 total

This also improves accuracy of the expression by ~ 2 ulp in some cases.

FFmpeg README

FFmpeg is a collection of libraries and tools to process multimedia content such as audio, video, subtitles and related metadata.

Libraries

  • libavcodec provides implementation of a wider range of codecs.
  • libavformat implements streaming protocols, container formats and basic I/O access.
  • libavutil includes hashers, decompressors and miscellaneous utility functions.
  • libavfilter provides a mean to alter decoded Audio and Video through chain of filters.
  • libavdevice provides an abstraction to access capture and playback devices.
  • libswresample implements audio mixing and resampling routines.
  • libswscale implements color conversion and scaling routines.

Tools

  • ffmpeg is a command line toolbox to manipulate, convert and stream multimedia content.
  • ffplay is a minimalistic multimedia player.
  • ffprobe is a simple analysis tool to inspect multimedia content.
  • ffserver is a multimedia streaming server for live broadcasts.
  • Additional small tools such as aviocat, ismindex and qt-faststart.

Documentation

The offline documentation is available in the doc/ directory.
