looks good to me

iirc the goal of this is less to get better performance, but to avoid long user visible
latencies.  Of course if it's faster it's great too, but that's only secondary.

What a trade-off, if you want to get rid of long latency you have to live with better throughput. I can live with that. ;-)

Your point well taken, not the intent of the patch, but it may indicate where a performance bottleneck happens as well.
