FWIW -- updated runs of the benchmarks are available at http://yarikoptic.github.io/numpy-vbench which now include also maintenance/1.8.x branch (no divergences were detected yet). There are only recent improvements as I see and no new (but some old ones are still there, some might be specific to my CPU here) performance regressions.
