A CSV parser using Go 1.26's experimental simd/archsimd package.
I wanted to see what the new SIMD API looks like in practice. CSV parsing is mostly "find these bytes in a buffer"—load 64 bytes, compare, get a bitmask of positions. The interesting part was handling chunk boundaries correctly (quotes and line endings can split across chunks).
- Drop-in replacement for encoding/csv - ~20% faster for unquoted data on AVX-512 - Quoted data is slower (still optimizing) - Scalar fallback for non-AVX-512
Requires GOEXPERIMENT=simd.

Feedback on edge cases or the SIMD implementation welcome.
