If you try to measure the cost of the authentication code using log messages you're going to get total noise, because the cost of logging a message is higher than the cost of doing the authentication. Each invocation of AES-SIV should take, in round numbers, 250 CPU cycles, and processing a typical request should take four invocations (unseal cookie, unseal message, seal new cookie, seal message), with only the final one being in the critical section.
