Would it be useful to have an optimized release for the most recent CPUs?
In particular the x86-64 v4 architecture is supported by GCC via compiler flag -march=x86-64-v4.
But as this could trigger issue #285 it would be best to disable AVX instructions using compiler flag -mno-avx.
Basically this would optimize for the 2017 Intel Skylake-X architecture, excluding Intel-specific instructions so AMD Zen4 or newer processors are also supported.
A release built with these compiler flags has been published here.
