The algorithm greedily selects 2- and 3-cycles that can be permuted to increase the number of runs of zeroes. The percent of zero runs from the master net increased from 68.46 to 70.11 from 2-cycles and only increased to 70.32 when considering 3-cycles. Interestingly, allowing both halves of L1 to intermix when creating zero runs can give another 0.5% zero-run density increase with this method.

Measured speedup:

```
CPU: 16 x AMD Ryzen 9 3950X 16-Core Processor
Result of 50 runs

base (./stockfish.master ) = 1561556 +/- 5439
test (./stockfish.patch ) = 1575788 +/- 5427
diff = +14231 +/- 2636

speedup = +0.0091
P(speedup > 0) = 1.0000
```
