I did some testing with the experimental SIMD on a project I was doing to make speech-to-text and text-to-speech models run natively in Go (with CGO_ENABLED=0, so no C depenencies), and testing non-SIMD w/ SIMD.
I don't have formal benchmarks for that, but I can anecdotally say the SIMD work made a measurable improvement in the performance of the calculations vs. just plain Go. I'm very optimistic about how these improvements will help make the Go runtime an even better target for more of these types of work going forward, especially since it is cross-platform.
