I wouldn't worry about a small regression on a micro- or mini-benchmark while the overall picture is stable.
Absolutely, I agree is not something to *worry* but I think it makes sense
to investigate as
the possible fix may be trivial. Part of the reason I wanted to recompute
them was because
the micro-benchmarks published in the What's new of 3.9 were confusing a
lot of users that
were thinking if 3.9 was slower.

Hi!
I have updated the branch benchmarks in the pyperformance server and now they include 3.9. There are some benchmarks that are faster but on the other hand some benchmarks are substantially slower, pointing at a possible performance regression in 3.9 in some aspects. In particular some tests like "unpack sequence" are almost 20% slower. As there are some other tests were 3.9 is faster, is not fair to conclude that 3.9 is slower, but this is something we should look into in my opinion.
You can check these benchmarks I am talking about by:
* Go here: https://speed.python.org/comparison/ * In the left bar, select "lto-pgo latest in branch '3.9'" and "lto-pgo latest in branch '3.8'" * To better read the plot, I would recommend to select a "Normalization" to the 3.8 branch (this is in the top part of the page) and to check the "horizontal" checkbox.
Those numbers tell me that it's a wash. I wouldn't worry about a small regression on a micro- or mini-benchmark while the overall picture is stable.
