Reply To: Application Walkthrough

I don’t know this kind of application and your description is a bit cryptic, so this is a guess.

The two loads, subtract, and square are routine vector ops. By “sum” I guess you mean an add-reduction; if so, NYF. A scalar sqrt uses a hardware sqrt-approximation and a software in-line algorithm, typically Newton-Rapheson. The whole can be pipelines, NYF.
