That's possibly because it changes alignment? > That shouldn't be related to the functionality of ccce90b3 itself, because > read-only test don't do anything with clog.

My earlier testing had showed that padding everything is the best approach :/ I'm inclined to push this to the next CF, it seems we need a lot more benchmarking here.
