Instead of passing the input through a F16Array, use the library provided function hfround. hfround is a fast look up table based rounding function for f16.
Benchmarking locally this provides a ~20% improvement to fma interval calculations, which are particularly sensitive to quantization cost. Overall I was seeing more on the order of ~10% improvement.
