Only in extreme circumstances does the cost (in processor time and I-cache footprint) translate to a tangible benefit - circumstances which usually resort to hand-coded assembly anyway. It shouldn't be 10%, unless it's cache effects. And for leaf routines (which never establish a frame), this is a non-issue.

The Tick-Tock release cycle basically fell apart by about 2015 , as Intel was unable to move from a 14nm manufacturing process to a 10nm manufacturing process. They will also have up to 256MB of L3 cache per processor. Intel has been stuck at 14nm in the server space since the Broadwell release in Q4 of 2016.
