Okay, you thought it can do better. Did you only think that or did you measure it?

The cover letter obviously only compares to upstream Linux, not to Mark's
series. Are there performance results I am missing that directly show that the
additional instructions have an actual measurable performance impact?

That's really all we are asking for. If there is a measurable performance
difference, great. Share the results or point us at them if we missed them.
