Hm.  _Maybe_ someone needs to take a look at c7aceab.  I took it to a 26
test tree yesterday, and it lowered my throughput, though I didn't
repeat a lot, was too busy.  I just backed it out of one of my 27 test
trees, and the netperf number is 1.030, tbench is 1.040.  I'll test this
in virgin source later, but thought I should drop a note, so perhaps
someone interested in this thread can confirm/deny loss.
