Any data to back up that FUD?

Of course I have data, do you think I am pulling benchmarks out of a hat?

But I have not published those benchmarks, if this is what you're asking, the Nintendo thing I am afraid I cannot reproduce easily as I no longer have this devkit on hand.

About the strlen benchmark, this is something I've done a few years ago, that could be easy to run again, but I am not sure this is worth the effort just to convince a random dude on the internet...

Yes. Share the data or you're spreading FUD.

You're being silly. Nothing they said was FUD, it was just a (not particularly controversial) anecdote
