Um, as far as I've seen (a while back, as I've stopped using them) performers assigned to a tavern poison patrons just as much as tavern keepers do (and tavern keepers perform just as much [or, rather, little] as performers do). Has that changed? Note the difference between performers assigned to the tavern (which poison patrons) and those assigned to to fortress as a whole (who don't).

No, it hasn't changed. I finally observed one performer serving alcohol. It is probably caused by my setup, with multiple locations, but only one and very small zone for actual alcohols, overlaying a part of the bigger storage. Served alcohols must be in this zone, but it is also available to dwarves who drink on their own.

Since I have two dozen of dwarves drinking at any moment, and they usually prefer the tavern zone (because it's close to the entry) they often reserve all its alcohol. Additionally serving alcohol in this setup takes excruciatingly long time (needed to squeeze through the corridors to collect mugs, then alcohol, then go the customer, each step possibly in other part of the fortress), plus the performers apparently like to make other things in the meantime, it just happens very rarely.

Anyway, I will turn off the tavernkeepers too, because I wanted only to see if it fulfils the need for helping others. Well, it does not.
