The convex-convex collision information is interesting. I guess it refers to a convex-convex case of up to 32 vertices. It doesn't tell if that is just the detection or including contact generation and solving.
Well, the sphere-sphere case corresponds to 20B/530M = 38 instructions. That's much too high for just collision detection, so I would guess contact generation is included. The convex-convex case becomes 37,500 instructions. Hard to say what that corresponds to as no additional information is given.

It gives some target for future Bullet GJK optimizations :-)
