Several things could go wrong here...

If you run the benchmark under gdb and break, then type
"disassemble $pc,$pc+200", do you actually end up in the right
program part (the one with AVX instructions)?

Or does your machine prefer AVX128?

To find out, what are the timings for inline code using

-mavx -Ofast

-mavx -mprefer=avx128 -Ofast

?
