Also, because SimpleV needs efficient scalar instructions in order to generate efficient vector instructions, adding new instructions -for data-transfer/conversion between FPRs and GPRs seems necessary. +for data-transfer/conversion between FPRs and GPRs multiplies that cost. In addition, the vast majority of GPR <-> FPR data-transfers are as part of a FP <-> Integer conversion sequence, therefore reducing the number -- 2.30.2
