The later used to be faster by a few percent in large server scenario since it can be predicted by the hardware better (2005). It is not always the case on current (2015) hardware. The compact entry points have been historically implemented on x86 only. Their additional complexity, space vs. speed trade-off and hardware advancements made them unjustified on other platforms. |
