The above link is the description of the development of ska_sort [a
radix-sorting algo], over which the OP claims a 2 times speed-up [the
graphs on GH don't include ska_sort nor any numbers, though]. My 2 cents is
that the measuring method is flawed, 2 different things are being compared
or the test-cases favor one over the other.
