I don't want to base any assumption to my paranoia. I'm adding Ayal and Farhana, who is working on optimization of interleaved memory accesses.
The question is what instruction is better by default VPERMT or VPERMI. I initially thought, that VPERMT is better inside loops, since VPERMI kills register with indices. 
Using VPERMI will require reloading indices again and again for each iteration.
Ayal, Farhana, what do you think?
