Using Vectors on Intel Xeon Phi

The use of vector instructions can speed up applications tremendously when used correctly. The benefit is that much more work can be done in a clock cycle than by performing the operation one at a time. The Intel Xeon Phi coprocessor was designed with strong support for vector level parallelism. "When these techniques are used either individually or in combination in different areas of the application, the performance will surely be increased, in many cases without a lot of effort."
