OP from twitter here. I'll take the blame for the click-baity-ness, but I was really shocked and this was in real-time in my defense.

I'm assuming it will get resolved, as the errata suggests by shoving lots of 0x2c segment overrides to re-align those jumps.

The price won't be 0, but will definitely less than the very extreme 20% edge case I stumbled upon.

I'm more "worried" or annoyed by older binaries that will never get updated. But hey... (;⌣̀_⌣́)



For those not understanding the context of the parent's comment, this HN post originally linked to @damageboy's https://twitter.com/damageboy/status/1194751035136450560 tweet showing a 20% performance hit, but was later changed by mods to link to the phoronix.com article.
