I think the skbinit patch and recycling skbs are mutually exclusive.
I would say they are more orthogonal than mutually exclusive. Although ou still need to prove that relocating the code actually helps in real life. On paper it looks good.
Troy Wilson (who works with me) posted SPECweb99 results using my skbinit patch to lkml on Friday: http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0208.2/1470.html I know you don't subscribe to lkml. Have you seen these results? On Numa machine it showed around 3% improvement using SPECweb99.
