It occurred to me that the differences in the relative performance
could be due to a different GCC version and/or the effect of inlining
on 32-bit code vs 64-bit code produced by GCC.

In any case, Alan's original report was for optimized builds, and he
observed (although was later unable to reproduce) that Emacs 28 was
slower than Emacs 27.  So the important part of this is to compare the
performance of the optimized (-O2) builds and see if we have any
degradation in Emacs 28 in that case.
