There is a new pull request by tornaria against master on the void-packages repository https://github.com/tornaria/void-packages glibc https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/47914 glibc: fix memalign performance regression The upgrade to 2.38 brought a very sad performance regression in sagemath: ``` $ time python -c 'from sage.graphs.generators.distance_regular import DoubleGrassmannGraph; print(DoubleGrassmannGraph(2,2))' :1: UserWarning: Resolving lazy import GF during startup :1: UserWarning: Resolving lazy import VectorSpace during startup Double Grassmann graph (5, 2, 2) real 0m30.101s user 0m29.959s sys 0m0.060s ``` while the same thing in 2.36 (or after this PR) takes ~ 1-2 seconds. Thanks to @oreo639 for figuring out it was https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30723 Indeed, all the performance regressions I was seeing are gone now. #### Testing the changes - I tested the changes in this PR: **briefly** A patch file from https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/47914.patch is attached
