I'm sure i've done something wrong ?

Hi all,
I'm playing with the Vector API but even a simple benchmark doesn't look good,
i'm expecting the auto-vectorization and the hand written code using the Vector API to be in the same ballpark in term of perf. 

Trying to compute the max of an array 
  https://github.com/forax/panama-vector/blob/master/fr.umlv.vector/src/test/java/fr/umlv/vector/SimpleBenchMark.java#L68
using JMH give me those results

Benchmark                   Mode  Cnt     Score    Error  Units
SimpleBenchMark.max_loop    avgt    5   469.585 ± 19.238  us/op
SimpleBenchMark.max_vector  avgt    5  1451.930 ± 37.718  us/op

I've tested with both my laptop (Species[int, 8, S_256_BIT]) and an AWS hardware (Species[int, 16, S_512_BIT]).
I'm sure i've done something wrong but i was not enable to find what.

cheers,
Rémi
