I don't think so. We need somebody to make some last modifications to the patch though and Christian doesn't seem to have the time atm. I think the bigger memory (size of the per process page table) and #cpus (number of pg backends => number of page tables allocated) the more imporant it gets to implement this. We already can spend gigabytes of memory on those on big systems.
