minus-squarehansl@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up16·1 year agoThere are already special instruction sets that deal with 128 and up bits. Many SIMD. AVX-512 for example deals with 512 bits at a time. At this point the advantage is parallelization and specialization of operations. AVX can be used for video encoding/decoding for example, or crypto, …
