No they don't look similar with or without.

If you just sort them you see:
316478 after
316540 after
316650 after
318448 after
318904 before
320216 before
321206 before
321308 before
323460 after
324596 before
It looks like ~1% degradation. Please run the test more times (maybe 1000) and
see how the numbers look.
cheers
