Title: Unleashing Monero Madness: Optimizing Miners on the x64 Backend with a dash of Inline Assembly

Yo fellow Monero enthusiasts, I've been tinkerin' with my x64 miners and I think I've stumbled upon a way to squeeze out a little more hashrate using some inline assembly magic. Specifically, I'm talking about optimizing the CPU-intensive tasks with SSE and AVX instructions. Anybody else have any experience with this or wanna join the optimization party?

"Dude, I've been testing the new x64 backend for Monero, and I gotta say, the performance boost is insane! I've been able to squeeze out around 30% more hashpower from my rigs with just a few tweaks. Anyone else noticed a significant improvement?"

"just a heads up, has anyone tried using the latest build of Nightscout with inline assembly on their Xeon CPUs? I've seen some decent speed boosts on my rig but I'm still tweaking the settings,"

"Been following this thread and gotta say, I'm hyped about the potential speed boosts with x64. Does anyone know if the inline assembly optimizations will also apply to Monero's cryptonight variant 6 (cnv6) or is that still a major roadblock? Looking forward to seeing some benchmarks"

"Nice optimization thread, OP! Can we discuss the impact on Monero's anonymity features with this new backend? Would love to see some benchmarks on how it affects ring size and tx speed."

"Lowkey excited to see what kind of performance gains are in store for Monero miners with this x64 backend optimization. Has anyone tried running these builds on AMD Zen 3 CPUs, looking for some real-world benchmarks?"

"Whoa, that's some next-level stuff right there. I'm curious to see how the author's tweaks to the miner's assembly code will affect Monero's x64 performance. Gonna try it out and see if the extra horsepower translates to better block times."
