OPTIMIZING BPF: SMALLER PROGRAMS FOR GREATER PERFORMANCE For decades, the evolution of computing performance has been governed by Moore’s law, which stated that every two years, the size of transistors would decrease and their numbers in dense integrated circuits would double. Then physics caught up, and the industry started to add processing cores to compensate the slow down of that curve (or to be more accurate, the end of frequency scaling)
