Here are some measurements from a Pixel 7 Pro that´s running a kernel either
with the Per-VMA locks patchset or without.
If there´s interest I can provide results of other specific apps as well.
Results are from consecutive cold app launches issued with "am start" command
spawning the main activity of Slack Android app.

There´s quite a noticeable improvement, as can be seen in the graph. The
results were reproducible.
Thanks for sharing. I am not surprised - after all, per-vma locks narrow some
of the performance gaps
between vanilla and speculative pfs, with less complexity (albeit this is now a
35 patch series :).
Thanks,
