Well, I finally was able to estimate link time correctly I think. I used perf stat --repeat 50 for that
I ran it twice for original code and for patched one, linked clang with --gc-sections.
For original it was: 0.310183332 seconds and 0.306395272 seconds, after applying patch it become 0.298682542 seconds and 0.300793454 seconds. So either patch accelerated speed time a bit or what is more looks like a truth for me: it just has no any visible negative affect on speed.
