The funny thing is, last week I was thinking how similar FF is to what slots/runways would likely provide. That is, intense directed focus on a single thing by a group of people until it's merged (or fails). Context is kept between iterations because everyone is on board for quick iterations with minimal distraction between them. It *does* work during FF, as we've seen in the past -- I'd expect we have nearly 100% merge rate of FFEs. How we arrive at a thing getting focus is different in slots/runways, but I feel the result could be the same. Splitting out the virt drivers is an easy way to make the life of a core much easier, but I think the negative impacts are severe and potentially irreversible, so I'd rather make sure we're totally out of options before we exercise it. --Dan
