Actually this whole concern started when i found several sites claiming Math.sqrt is quite slow.
They offered some code that does good enough approximations and that's supposed to be faster.
But when I tried it myself i found the Java version to be faster. So either it really does use HW acceleration or the site was old or just plain wrong. Who knows...

I guess I could if this ever becomes a real issue.
I was asking more out of curiosity than anything else.
It doesn't seem like a real problem anyway since it really is very fast.
Thanks
