I think the vma sorting is hurting (contention on i_shared_sem). It also
only gains a factor of about 2 in the corner case you were worried about
... any ideas on ways to make it cheaper? We need something more dramatic
anyway (though the other solutions I have revolve around the same
contention problem ;-( ) I just backed it out for now in my stuff.
Note systimes on kernel compiles, and SDET throughput.
