When possible, I use multiplication instead of division.

Me too, if the code has a potentially significant performance impact. Otherwise I use the most readable form.
In some occasions I had to ditch floating point completely and get straight to fixed point integer arithmetic - after having eliminated divisions wherever possible and memory access through matrix (a single pointer going forward of a fixed amount each cycle is extremely fast and helps any caching mechanism).

If you can arrange it to divide by a power of two, you can use the AND operator. Then look how fast that is going to be.

I had thought about it, but not sure if it is going to be easy to only use masking. The dynamic part are periods / frequencies

I find that very surprising. Not long I did some tests because I work on a high performance application and found the difference to be so minor that I didn't care about it.
I would like to see your code if you don't mind. Please e-mail it to me or post on my personal page if you prefer it not be shared publicly.

I can't write you privately, you don't have the option active.
Write me an "a-mail" to this answer and I will answer you back with the code.

Had morning tea with @Chris-Maunder about 2 hours ago.
Me bacon and Egg roll and Chips while Maunder had a coffee. He had to drive and I had to go back to work so no Shandy's this time.
Next time he has to alot more than 30 minutes in his schedule and we're dropping in on The Lord Nelson in The Rocks.

Their reward was less than the Bacon and Egg with chips he bought me.

For a second you had me believe that CP was now producing tomato sauce.

Lucky fellow! I can think of few things I'd enjoy more than breakfast with the both of you. Alas, it's quite unlikely that fate will allow me that pleasure...
