This PR removes all bounds checks from the hot loop of
read_coefficients()
. Workshopped by staring at the assembly usingcargo-show-asm
on baseline x86_64.This function's execution (excluding other functions it calls) accounts for 20% of the time on the profile from #71. Despite that, I could not measure any difference in end-to-end performance on my machine. So feel free to reject this PR.
