Unless I've misunderstood, `rand` would not ensure universal uniqueness.

without std::vec, what would block::Matrix look like?

So I discovered this afternoon that codegenning AVX is a simple matter of: ``` bash $ export RUSTFLAGS='-C target-feature=+avx' $ cargo clean $ cargo bench --features simd $ objdump -d...

And on the topic of `go-faster`, would you mind re-running the benches with `+avx` and `--features simd` on that branch? The numbers I'm getting are quite favorable now: ``` bash...
