I implemented the suggestion provided by @Grevor in #41495 (comment)
The removal of bound checks has no visible effect on the perf (+-1%, within the range of error), but removing the branch does impact the perf a lot:
The problem is that for some cases it improves the perf, while for other it regresses. @tannergooding do you have any idea why this could be the case here?
I am not sure whether I'll have free cycles to dig in more into that. I am just opening the PR to start a discussion.
