I think the biggest problem with our twine and duct tape page reclaim

I think we branch a new tree for all interested VM developers to work
on and try to get performing well. Probably try to restrict it to page
reclaim and related fundamentals so it stays as small as possible and
worth testing.
Sounds great. I'd be willing to maintain a quilt tree for
this - in fact, I've already got a few patches ;)
Also, we should probably keep track of exactly what we're
working towards. I've put my ideas on a wiki page, feel
free to add yours - probably a new page for stuff that's
not page replacement related ;)
