Please show the output of cat /proc/cpuinfo. My guess is that you have a cpu without ssse3 support. Therefore you cannot use the distributed binaries.

[xahlee]

here's cpuinfo. You are right, probably no ssse3 support. Thank you.

Yup, that's the problem. The binaries I ship are compiled with SSSE3 support, which I realize means they aren't guaranteed to work on every x86_64 CPU. If you compile ripgrep from source with cargo build --release, then you should get a working binary.

This whole issue will be fixed once Rust gets better SIMD support with the ability to dynamically pick the right algorithms at runtime, which I hope will happen in 2017.

[xahlee]

Superb work on ripgrep. Thank you again.
