     * Implementation of sum which is both more numerically
     * stable _and faster_ than the naive implementation
     * which is used in all standard numerical libraries I know of:
     * Colt, OpenGamma, Apache Commons Math, EJML.
     *
     * Implementation uses variant of Kahan's algorithm keeping a running error
     * along with the accumulator to try to cancel out the error at the end.
     * This is much faster than Schewchuk's algorithm but not
     * guaranteed to be perfectly precise
     * In most cases, however, it is just as precise.
     * Due to optimization it is about 30% faster
     * even than the naive implementation on my machine.
     * @param values
     * @return
     * Side Effects: none
