--- Comment #13 from markus at selfnet dot de ---
May I ask for a high priority to get this fixed in the stable versions?

With the dolphin emulator, we've seen an up to 80% slowdown on random
compilation settings and usages because of this issue:

We use AVX128 and SSE in a mixed way in our just in time compiler, so we are
hit hard by this penalty. Especially as this thread run almost no C++ code. So
there was a good chance to never call VZEROUPPER at all. Debugging this
performance issue was a big pain.
