Relevant, though not so much here as it is to Bitcoin, I have an implementation of sha256 in hash_impl.h using intrinsics for https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_SHA_extensions, just waiting to get my hands on some actual hardware for testing/benchmarking. Works fine under their emulator.

To be fair though, it's basically just lifted from one of Intel's examples.
