Question
For a given CPU integer operations a+b, and a*b take almost identical amounts of time, for
floating point (32 bit) multiplication takes approximately 3x as long. Floating point additions and
integer additions take nearly identical times. (Yes, those are nearly real numbers for Intel
Haswell CPU's). For a program that is 20% logic operations (which take the same no matter
what), 40% additions and 40% multiplications, derive a formula to calculate the estimated
performance of changing the maths from Integer to Floating point operations on the same CPU
