Remove countMaskInv caching in bench framework

TheBlueMatt · TheBlueMatt · commit 0b1b9148cd77 · 2017-09-11T15:51:36.000-04:00
We were saving a div by caching the inverse as a float, but this
ended up requiring a int -&gt; float -&gt; int conversion, which takes
almost as much time as the difference between float mul and div.

There are lots of other more pressing issues with the bench
framework which probably require simply removing the adaptive
iteration count stuff anyway.
