@nikic any suggestion on how can I run the performance benchmark myself?

Not seeing a difference in instructions:u with this change: http://llvm-compile-time-tracker.com/compare.php?from=3b25407d977d9ed3dbcaccd4f8850b65e95d70fd&to=8f5c0fd7348e78aedafcee3f7e67f04e3bc79e9c&stat=instructions:u Which is not really surprising -- it might make a difference in cycles, but not at a level I can resolve accurately.

Moves from 42 elements (automatically calculated) to 32. It should
both reduce memory usage (it does at least in my test) and avoid
the need for a division when indexing the elements.

@nikic I have pushed a new commit where I change the size of the page to 32 elements from the current 42. It should at least get rid of a division.

Should we abandon this?

I have updated the branch and I think the two changes in this PR are in any case good. However it's my understanding that the performance regression was actually due to some less aggressive inlining of the new code. I have no idea how to proceed for that though.
