I think SIMD and Dispatch have been presented on before at C++ Now right? Could anyone also very quickly summarise the main differences in their C++ 11 only rewrite? I think I remember it was mainly compilation speed rather than doing anything unusually C++ 11 only?

Boost.Dispatch underwent a c++11 rewrite for compile-time issue yes, the main point being to use proper modern type deduction facility and be less constraining on how to provide dispatching point. Mathias Gaunard can probably be more talkative on the details. Boost.SIMD is still being updated but it's mostly cosmetic/usability changes for now. Nothing in Boost.SIMD scream c++11-only by design, it's just adapting to new pratice.
