4 way will give much better performance on supported algos with CPUs
that have AVX2 and should only be used on CPUs with AVX2. 4 way algo
support will be added incrementally, see change log below for supported algos.

The following tips may be useful for older AMD CPUs.
AMD CPUs older than Piledriver, including Athlon x2 and Phenom II x4, are not
supported by cpuminer-opt due to an incompatible implementation of SSE2 on
these CPUs. Some algos may crash the miner with an invalid instruction.

not supported by cpuminer-opt due to an incompatible implementation of SSE2

Users are recommended to use an unoptimized miner such as cpuminer-multi.

----------
v3.7.11
4way no longer a seperate feature, included in AVX2.
Added x16r algo for Ravencoin, anime algo for Animecoin.
More 4way optimizations for X13 and up.
Tweaked CPU affinity to better support more than 64 CPUs.
Fixed compile problem on some old AMD CPUs.
v3.7.10
4way optimizations for lyra2rev2, lyra2h, quark, timetravel8, timetravel10
