From: Christian Ehrhardt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> A small patch series of optimizations out of our discussions and my experiments this week. All patches improve the generic path executed for every exit we take, therefore even a littel improvement can help a lot.
I would be happy if we could apply those soon. I'll continue looking into the TLB stuff eating ~30% of our time. But since that might take a while I would be happy if these three patches could be applied now (and relieve me, by not having to keep them in sync). Comments welcome, especially since exits still feel too long (current assumption cache or tlb issues).
