Out of curiosity I ran the patchset from Amazon with the same setup to see
if performance wise it was any better. But it looks equally bad. At 32
users it performed even worse and the idle time increased much more. Only
good thing about it was it was being fair to both the instances as seen in
the low %stdev

Users  Baseline %stdev  %idle  cosched     %stdev %idle
16     1        2.9     66     0.93(-7%)   1.1 69
24     1        11.3    53     0.87(-13%)  11.2 61
32     1        7       41     0.66(-34%)  5.3     54
