Thanks Flavio for checking and Daniel for your consideration. Indeed the issue exists in 2.5 branch.
We are treating this more in the bucket of a performance bug fix than a feature. Any specific testing that you would like to see run to help reduce your concern related to changes to the core modules ? Ciara, what's your opinion on these changes for a backport ?

Also it touches some core modules (seq and rcu) in a non trivial way. What do you guys think?
