This is a slightly mystified attempt to recover the performance
regression seen on our JS benchmark runner after 3c2a2bb39f
and c7bba505ea.
With this change, c7bba505ea is effectively reverted from the
perspective of x86_64.
It seems both aarch64 and x86_64 are extremely sensitive to the use of
bitfields here. Unfortunately, aarch64 gains a huge speedup from them
while x86_64 sees a very noticeable slowdown.
Since we're talking about 5%+ swings in both directions here, let's go
for the best of both worlds and use ifdefs in the Operand memory layout.
This packs the bytecode much better and gives us a decent performance
boost on throughput-focused benchmarks.
Measured on my M3 MacBook Pro:
- 4.7% speedup on Kraken
- 2.3% speedup on Octane
- 2.7% speedup on JetStream1
