CPU/wall time benchmarks are not that relevant to system performance (seriously!) because second-order effects matter more. But if you had peak memory and page demand graphs that would matter.
For a network driver I don't know if it'd really look any different though. That's mostly arena allocations.

The fast atomics and JavaScript instructions do exist but aren't "special", they're just part of the ARM ISA.
