Hi Cornelia, I didn't re-run tests on V2. But the major difference between RFC and V2 is that V2 only cache result for X86 (s390/arm needn't) and V2 saves a expensive operation ( 440-1400 cycles on my test machine ) for X86/VMX. So I think V2's performance is at least the same as RFC or even slightly better. :) > > I would also like to see some s390 numbers; unfortunately I only have a > z/VM environment and any performance numbers would be nearly useless > there.
