Vectorized and performance-portable Quicksort

Very cool work! What do you see as the typical process of getting code like this into use in well known codebases? I'm trying to get a sense of when a typical engineer (operating with higher level language or libraries) might get to take advantage of this.

Thanks for open sourcing!

Thanks! Highway is included in Chrome and Firefox. Not sure what you mean by process? It's pretty easy for example using git submodules - you tell Git the Highway version you want to depend on, notify your CMake or Bazel build system of the hwy library dependency, and that's it.

One requirement is C++11 or later - some people have asked about supporting C but I believe that's infeasible.
