ok, then it's "just" a single thread client latency of request issue, which
(as increasingly often) software vendors need to realize. The proper way to
deal with this, then, is to multi-thread on the application layer.

Reminds my of many UltraSPARC T1 issues, which don't sit in hardware nor
OS, but in the way applications have been developed for years :).

Best regards,
