It's faster in some things and slower in others. Mostly it's not the limiting factor on performancce, the rest of your program is. Note that uClibc is aimed at _size_, not _speed_. On some chips it's faster because more code fits in cache, but other times there's a more efficient algorithm that eats more memory (assuming that your DRAM bus isn't your performance limiting factor, which is again hardware-specific)... You have to run benchmarks, and they're always workload-specific.
