Is-it possible to have an ABP version compiled with the SSE2 optimization ?

Do you know when Boinc will detect the SSE3 and more possibilities of our processors ?

ABP and SSE2 ?

ABP does almost all calculations (in particular the time critical ones) in single precision, there is no gain from SSE2 over SSE. (ABP uses SSE, if your CPU doesn't support it, you should tell BOINC not to get ABP work).
