I dont have a statistic result. 
This change mainly helps large binaries. In my cases, a binary is ~8G, the other RAM used for LTO is ~40G. So this change reduces 17% memory overhead. 
This 17% reduction is important to me because otherwise I have to find a machine with more than the normal RAM limit to build this binary.
For small applications, this change does not help too much.
