Hi Marco,
thanks for the engine.
As I was not sure what´s the difference between swpopcnt and hwpopcnt I ran the bench on my pc. Here are the results
64bit - 956307n/s 100%
32bt - 746936n/s 78% hwpopcnt
32bit - 570501n/s 60% swpopcnt
regards
Werner

yes - for Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 (2x2,4 GHZ) the SW POPCNT compile is o.k., to execute the HW POPCNT win32 is not possible: error in application
