Sorry for misguided definition there, thought quoting does the trick for me. I was meant to say that the scalability bottlenecks like these pop out quickly, unexpected and hit hard. The difference between single-threaded and two-threaded versions could be so dramatic, so you can easily say it goes down the sink. It's inconvenient to fix one "cliff" and introduce the other, albeit "completely unrelated". -Aleksey.
