/* The code here is an optimized merge sort. Starting from a generic merge sort
 * the following optimizations were applied:
 *
 * o Batching of memcpy() calls: Instead of calling memcpy() to copy each and
 *   every element into a temporary buffer, blocks of elements are copied
 *   at a time.
 *
 * o To reduce the number of memcpy() calls further, copying leading
 *   and trailing elements into our temporary buffer is avoided, in case it is
 *   not necessary to merge them.
 *
 * A further optimization could be to specialize memcpy calls based on the
 * size of the types we compare. For now, this code does not include the
 * relevant optimization, as clang e.g. inlines a very efficient memcpy()
 * implementation. It is not clear, that the specialized version as provided in
 * the blog post, is really superior to the one that will be inlined by
 * default. So we decided to keep the code simple until this optimization was
 * proven to be beneficial.
