I'm not against changes.  But so far I haven't seen anything concrete
about what these new things are yet :)
Note also, theres a lot of wastage of that scarce sock buffer via page
sized skbs - its not as trivial to fix, but would go some way to improve
overrunning of the socket.
I wasn't aware of this scarcity problem.  Can you elaborate?

Thanks,
