I recompiled the program with commenting out all non-multiply kernels(see attached). Still pegged out for 2 hours and still going. Do you know specifically which kernel relates to the multiply_cc function?

I was really excited about Volk after reading up on it, but unfortunately it seems to be too much for the RPi. Thanks karl
You can edit volk/apps/volk_profile.cc and change the the number of samples and iterations it runs for each kernel. The function call is (from volk/lib/qa_utils.h): #define VOLK_PROFILE(func, tol, scalar, len, iter, results) So len and iter can be decreased for your processor's needs.

You can turn it off. Have you run 'volk_profile' on the system, yet? If so, that would have generated a ~/.volk/volk_config. You can edit that file by hand to specify the architecture you want as 'generic' for whatever kernel is causing you trouble. This just runs a standard C for loop with no SIMD instructions (except whatever the compiler tries to do).
