Thanx in advance.

SSE is a set of "specific processor instructions"
used to make the code run faster on that processor,
Streaming SIMD Extensions - (SSE) Intel Corporation's floating point SIMD* extention of their Pentium microprocessor architecture. SSE was formerly know as KNI (Katmai New Instructions). It was introduced with the Pentium III.
but it's supported from AMD, Athlon XP up, too
*Single Instruction/Multiple Data - (SIMD) (Or "data parallel") The classification under Flynn's taxonomy for a parallel processor where many processing elements (functional units) perform the same operations on different data. There is often a central controller which broadcasts the instruction stream to all the processing elements.
from http://computing-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/
the Dash code (in some plugins) detects whether the processor can run SEE or not and use different functions according to that
