On my system (Intel quad core i5-4570) I get  51648 c/s without SSE2 and
73216 c/s with SSE2.

While the memset at the end of POMELO() is necessary to clear the
memory, it is not necessary for us doing password "guessing" instead of
hashing real user passwords.

Just commenting out this memset in pomelo_plug.c and pomelo_sse2_plug.c
helps a little bit: I get 52160 c/s without SSE2 and 74240 c/s with SSE2.
