Comment (by carter):

 repeating my remark from phab:

 hrmmm, i suspect the AVX512 stuff may not be terrible performant / some /
 many intel CPUS in consumer / dev machine hands wont support them, have
 you tested using it via C FFI for your inner loops first?

 This is definitely an example of an instruction where the shuffle data can
 be at runtime, i'd suggest first making sure an inner loop / subroutine in
 C has satisfactory perf first. Whats the context driving this effort?
