Here we go!

The size of the jump table section:

* defconfig:

- ticket: 12176 bytes
- combo: 13168 bytes

So that's a ~8% increase.

* ubuntu config

- ticket:   73920 bytes
- combo: 84656 bytes

And that's a ~14% increase.

This is the ELF size difference between ticket and combo spinlocks:

* ticket:   695906872 bytes
* combo: 697558496 bytes

So that's an increase of ~0.23% on the ELF.

And the .text section size:

* ticket:   10322820 bytes
* combo: 10332136 bytes

And that's a ~0.09% increase!

So that's even better :)

Thanks for asking!
