I'm all for proper review and fixing any issues before forcing "ugliness" and "black magic" on unsuspecting users. Having said that, you failed to mention that your company sells userspace stack replacements. Informal testing I did convinces me that for a given HW, the latencies you get with this patchset and with userspace busy-polling are about the same. (This is my personal opinion, I'm not authorized to talk on behalf of my company or anyone else.) Why don't you try it out and tell us what you find. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Try New Relic Now & We'll Send You this Cool Shirt New Relic is the only SaaS-based application performance monitoring service that delivers powerful full stack analytics.
