> Hi,

> This patch optimises the matching rules for floating-point comparison with respects to eq/ne on x86-64
> 
> 1, When the inputs of a comparison is the same (i.e `isNaN` patterns), `ZF` is always set, so we don't need `cmpOpUCF2` for the eq/ne cases, which improves the sequence of `If (CmpF x x) (Bool ne)` from

> 2, The move rules for `cmpOpUCF2` is missing, which makes patterns such as `x == y ? 1 : 0` to fall back to `cmpOpU`, which have a really high cost of fixing the flags, such as

> 3, The patch also changes the pattern of `isInfinite` to be more optimised by using `Math.abs` to reduce 1 comparison and compares the result with `MAX_VALUE` since `>` is more optimised than `==` for floating-point types.
