>> Best language for SIMD integration? C

Uh, no. C intrinsics are so much worse than just writing assembly that it's not even comparable.

Agree to disagree there. For casual "I need to vectorize this code" tasks, modern compilers are almost magic. I mean, have you looked at the generated code for array-based numerics processing? It's like, you start the process of "vectorizing" the algorithm and realize the compiler already did 80% of it for you.
