No you haven't.
I believe the function in charge of summing columns is this one:
ArraySumFunctor::executeSSE2
However, that patch stills on review because it touches non trivial stuff.
It's the last one, but I believe it will take 1 week -2 months,
So, please wait until this is merged:
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/115113
And then you should get the same results as the example attachment I've
uploaded.
