Improve SVE2 optimizations of SimdSobelDy - #891
Merged
Conversation
Rewrite the ARM SVE2 path to load full 8-bit vectors, use SVE2 widening 1-2-1 horizontals, and reuse per-row sums across 2/4 output rows so it is no longer slower than NEON. Co-authored-by: igor.ermolaev <igor.ermolaev@altezza.org>
