I did a quick search after your respond, had info from blogs and newsgroups.
My post was about sse4a not yet reviewed. It might have a little impact on codecs, but no 40% improvement over all.

I wonder what a benefit linux distributions will have on k10 arch from gcc improvements as those also tune for prefetching.
