We're all very interested in *real* evidence here, because there hasn't been any in the past. If you don't have any evidence, you can expect people to call bullshit on this.
I can't send any *evidence* here, but I can post my own opinions and experiences with kernels. And I'd say thats not a bullshit. Yes, that's true that performance gain isn't very big and noticeable, but after recompiling 2.4.18-bf24 from woody with my own optimisations for athlon, I noticed little speed up in compiling my programs. But it is really NOT very big.
I can say, that bullshit is that the performance gain is huge :)
