Function `zend_hash_find_bucket` consumes much time in WordPress workload

Description

Dear, maintainers:
I am utilizing PHP-FPM and have profiled performance data for a WordPress workload. Within this benchmark, I've identified certain hotspots. The performance analysis from 'perf' highlights that functions such as zend_hash_find and zend_hash_find_known_hash are consuming a considerable amount of time. Upon investigation, I suspect that the core issue lies within the zend_hash_find_bucket function.

Upon inspecting the assembly code and annotating it, I noticed that certain 'mov' instructions are causing significant delays. To address this, I attempted to optimize the zend_hash_find_bucket function. I experimented with optimizations such as utilizing prefetch instructions and employing struct alignment. However, these optimizations did not seem to have a discernible impact on performance.

Is this a known performance issue within the PHP community? I'm seeking suggestions or insights on potential avenues for optimization. Your feedback and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
