libpng spends a significant amount of time in memcpy(). This might tie in with Ramana's investigation or the unaligned access work by allowing more memcpy()s to be inlined.
It's the unaligned access and the change / improvements to the memcpy that *might* help in this case. But that ofcourse depends on the compiler knowing when it can do such a thing. Ofcourse what might be more interesting is the kind of workload analysis that Dave's done in the past with memcpy to know what the alignment and size of the buffer being copied is.
