Please also include the benchmark you used to measure this. Take a look
at benchtests/README to know ways in which you can include your
benchmark in glibc.
Also, please take a moment to review the contribution checklist[1] to
know the kind of information you need to include in your patch
submission. For example this submission is missing a ChangeLog.
Thanks,
Siddhesh
