I see. Do you think you can make it by Friday next week? (My talk is
on Friday.) Probably in that case Ondrej could do the Soot release,
too. I would have done it myself but I don't know if it's gonna be
possible from a potentially flaky internet connection in Berlin (plus
from my experience I think I won't have much time during ECOOP).

I did new runs just yesterday exactly for that reason. For some
benchmarks, the values look indeed a quite a bit better. The only
benchmark that still refuses to run reasonably fast (even after all
our optimizations) is bloat/FailSafeIter.
