I'm perverse but not to the point that I'd consider using QString for math 
operations :)

That'd only be as good as the compiler's auto-vectorisation, which rarely has a 
significant impact on anything but the simpler operations.
Also, to get SIMD support and auto-vectorisation you need the correct -march CPU 
flag, no?
