A DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST :
A common code sequence in 3d code is this:
float value = ....;
float result = (float)Math.sqrt(value);


Disabled code obtained from 1.6.0-rc-fastdebug-b90-debug
with the following options:
-XX:+PrintCompilation -XX:+PrintInlining -XX:+PrintOptoAssembly


JUSTIFICATION :
unneccessary float point format conversion.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
SQRTSS XMM1a,XMM0a

ACTUAL -
CVTSS2SD XMM0a,XMM1a	# D-round
SQRTSD XMM0a,XMM0a
CVTSD2SS XMM1a,XMM0a	# F-round
