With `benchmark` you need to quote the argument (it's a function, not
a macro).
[ BTW, (point-min) is more better than 0. ]

Good (except for disabling GC, which makes the measurement different
from "real life").

It looks minor but it seems stable enough to be more than just
statistical variation.

Hard to tell.

Do (profiler-start 'cpu) before running the benchmark and
(profiler-report) afterwards. And then C-u RET on the top line to expand
it (recursively).
