Which test suite did you run? Those numbers seem potentially
indistinguishable from noise, which probably isn't great for such a large
patch set.
I ran John Naylor's test_popcount module [0] with the following command on
an i7-1195G7:
time psql postgres -c 'select drive_popcount(10000000, 1024)'
Without your patches, this seems to take somewhere around 8.8 seconds.
With your patches, it takes 0.6 seconds. (I re-compiled and re-ran the
tests a couple of times because I had a difficult time believing the amount
of improvement.)
