I think we can conclude that for this particular test case, the effects
of the patch are pretty much masked by noise.  I definitely see no way
that the latest version of the patch could really be slower than the
original; it has the same job-scheduling behavior and strictly less
list-munging overhead.  Now the patch could be slower than unpatched
as a result of different job-scheduling behavior ... but there's no
evidence here of a consistently measurable benefit or loss from that.

IIRC daveg was volunteering to do some tests with his own data; maybe
we should wait for those results.
