Heads up for a hot new root seeking algorithm!!

Since it's on-topic:

What do you think about more advanced methods like this one:

There's a lot of operations in each iteration, but smaller number of evaluations to find the root. Considering that newRPL has relatively slow CORDIC transcendental functions, evaluation is heavy and one of these could perhaps be beneficial, but have you ever tested if it's actually worth it? Sometimes they just want to prove a theoretical point, but they are not really better than plain Newton.
