clawdesk-simd

The SIMD crate provides hardware-accelerated operations for text processing and vector computations.

What It Does (Plain English)​

SIMD stands for "Single Instruction, Multiple Data" — it's a way to do many calculations at once using your CPU's special capabilities. This crate makes ClawDesk's text processing and memory search faster by using these hardware features. You don't need to do anything — it works automatically.

Key Features​

  • Accelerated text processing — Faster tokenization and text analysis
  • Vector operations — High-speed similarity search for memory/RAG
  • Auto-detection — Automatically uses the best SIMD features your CPU supports (SSE, AVX2, NEON)
  • Fallback — Works on any CPU, just with normal speed if SIMD isn't available
