Exactly, that is the one case where float and double are better, where large
volumes of data need to be processed, normally in a regular fashion. For
cases where small amounts of data are processed and where there is littler
opportunity to use vectorization, they have little or no advantage over real.
And I suspect that both kinds of code occur with some regularity.
