Hohum, so much for trying to take a peek.

At any rate, unlike the tbench numbers, these have the look of signal
rather than test jig noise, and pretty strong signal at that, so maybe
patchlet should fly. At the very least, it appears to be saying that
there is significant performance to be had by some means.

Bah, fly or die little patchlet. Either way there will be winners and
losers, that's just the way it works if you're not shaving cycles.
