I want to see benchmarks on how this affects actual gameplay. That’ll be the real story.

From what I’ve seen the authors of the papers have listed the zenbleed mitigation impact as “statistically insignificant”.

Which is clearly not correct. Take a look at eg. this benchmark; many workloads take a sizeable hit. Even plain 'ol glibc sin and cos take about 8% longer, and the most pathological hit was the MariaDB workload which took almost 200% longer. Looks like many tasks related to math or heavy-duty string processing will be at least 10-20% slower, but it’s hard to say yet what this’ll do to games. I’d expect CPU-heavy games to be affected
