Benchmark looks good. I think you need to look at the generated code and perf data to get more insight into the differences you are observing. Sometimes array alignment can add variance to the results (which may not be the case here), and to rule that out i sometimes run vector tests with the HotSpot option `-XX:ObjectAlignmentInBytes` e.g. `-XX:ObjectAlignmentInBytes=32`. test/micro/org/openjdk/bench/jdk/incubator/vector/EqualsIgnoreCaseBenchmark.java line 111: > 109: .or(letter.and(upperA.eq(upperB))); > 110: > 111: if(equalsIgnoreCase.allTrue()) { Suggestion: if (equalsIgnoreCase.allTrue()) { ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/12790
