Hi James, Although the performance improvements are welcomed, I wonder how does this stack compared to 1.9.x version?
There have been discussions here, more specific https://groups.google.com/forum/#!starred/ansible-devel/UU0Tpw-qlhY, and couple of issues raised and outlined in your post here https://groups.google.com/forum/#!starred/ansible-devel/TLEc1NoQ7lA, that revel a serious problem in the very core of 2.x release. Has this been addressed in 2.2.0 and if yes how close is the 2.2 performance to the old 1.9.x branch?
