Improved performance in integer division of NumPy arrays
--------------------------------------------------------
-Integer division of NumPy arrays now uses libdivide.
-With builtin support for SSE2, AVX2 and AVX512 vector
-division from libdivide and other minor improvements,
-there is a large speedup.
+Integer division of NumPy arrays now uses libdivide when
+the divisor is a constant. With the usage of libdivde and
+other minor optimizations, there is a large speedup.
The ``//`` operator and ``np.floor_divide`` makes use
of the new changes.
