IMHO, stack protector setup put more stuffs during epilogue, but quite likely it is negligible unless it cause too much L1 cache misses.

Security wise, I think it's better to just leave it as is like now. -- regards, Mulyadi Santosa Freelance Linux trainer and consultant blog: the-hydra.blogspot.com training: mulyaditraining.blogspot.com
