The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

 Hello, everyone! If you already know what is going on, then this post is for you, if you don't this is also for you. Here's what happened. This is: 1. An explanation about why I was gone for over a month with no online activity at all. 2. An explanation about the recent drama regarding the easter egg in Thorium and contents of the Thorium Website. 3.

Namely: The use of AVX and AES instructions. CFlag and LDFlags and Rust COPT flags changed from their default values of 2 to 3, lto_opt_level changed from 0 to 3, import_instr_limit changed from 5 to 100, all debug constructs stripped from binaries, and finally, various LOOP optimizations implemented as -mllvm flags passed to the LLVM Clang compiler. This nets a 2-8% performance improvement, depending on the benchmark. Some benchmarks I have ran an
