Consider making IA-32 build instead of SSE(1), and also making SSE2 build. #422

In my browser testing with New Moon, I found IA-32 and SSE(1) are the same in performance, and only SSE2 shows a noticeable performance increase. So I figure if IA-32 is doable, then it's worth a try to replace the SSE(1) build. Then there should also be a SSE2 build since it gives better performance.

If you want to see the results of my testing, they're here. https://board.eclipse.cx/viewtopic.php?t=669 I would also be willing to test Mypal if I got these versions too.

Great, let you ask also IA-8-8008.
You know I was running the browser (68.13.8 see) without pranks on real Cel-1200 and 512 ram, assume this is the most weakest machine where it may run.
Anyway let somebody who care welcome to do it.

To be honest, I don't have any working pre-SSE2 hardware. I mostly just see this as a why not since there's no performance difference. Maybe I will get around to an attempt in my fork whenever I start working on it idk.

So you play with virtuals machines then.
I prefer spend time for something real.
By the way I have got the regression bug marked CVE what and before close it shall not publish the new version. I think this one more week at least
