That's quite possibly one culprit for the slowdown. Right now one AllocSetContext struct fits precisely into three cachelines. After your change it doesn't anymore. Consider not counting memory in bytes but blocks and adding it directly after the NodeTag. That'd leave the size the same as right now.
