Crunch3r has graciously shared his FMA4 code, so I am working on porting to FreeBSD now!

Hi,

I've been running the project on both Windows and FreeBSD, and I've noticed that FreeBSD only seems to have the v100 binary compared to vectorized SSE2/3/AVX binaries on Windows...the result being that work units are completing roughly 3x slower on FreeBSD:

FreeBSD:

53674280	23156476	21 Nov 2014, 0:34:10 UTC	21 Nov 2014, 8:31:04 UTC	Completed and validated	28,539.17	28,439.79	480.00	Period Search Application v100.00
53674318	23156485	21 Nov 2014, 0:34:10 UTC	21 Nov 2014, 8:31:04 UTC	Completed and validated	28,487.03	28,389.78	480.00	Period Search Application v100.00
53674367	23156507	21 Nov 2014, 0:34:10 UTC	21 Nov 2014, 8:31:04 UTC	Completed and validated	28,413.68	28,315.14	480.00	Period Search Application v100.00


Windows:

53826331	23232313	22 Nov 2014, 5:17:54 UTC	22 Nov 2014, 8:38:20 UTC	Completed and validated	10,078.31	9,896.56	480.00	Period Search Application v102.10 (sse3)
53826333	23232315	22 Nov 2014, 5:17:54 UTC	22 Nov 2014, 8:38:20 UTC	Completed and validated	10,127.30	9,905.70	480.00	Period Search Application v102.10 (sse3)
53826335	23232317	22 Nov 2014, 5:17:54 UTC	22 Nov 2014, 8:38:20 UTC	Completed and validated	10,036.28	9,849.80	480.00	Period Search Application v102.10 (sse3)


If someone can point me to the source, I'd be happy to provide optimized binaries for FreeBSD.

Thanks!
