See "enables" above.  Though I agree we want the thing at parity or
better on its own merits, I don't see the point of throwing tomatoes at
the "enables" points.  Recommendation: separate the list into "improves"
and "enables".
The direction has been set and I'm following it. These things are now
off the roadmap entirely regardless, or at least I won't pursue them
until the things needing to be done now are addressed.
Say, we could use a number of helpers with the quantitative measurement
effort, Is there any chance you could help out here as well?
Forget it :-)

I'll help with the test design.  We have a bunch of people ready to do
the work on the actual benchmarking.  We need to provide precise statements
of the test model, and put out a call for testers.  I'll help with that
too.
It'd certainly help get the cost/benefit analysis of rmap going for the
merge, and maybe even pinpoint things needing to be addressed.
