Hi Peter,

Also, you might have noticed, I still need to do everything SLOB. The
last time I rewrote all this code I was still hoping Linux would 'soon'
have a single slab allocator, but evidently we're still going with 3 for
now.. :-/

So I guess I can no longer hide behind that and will have to bite the
bullet and write the SLOB bits..
Oh, I don't expect SLOB to go away anytime soon. We are still trying to
get rid of SLAB, though, but there are some TPC regressions that we
don't have a reproducible test case for so that effort has stalled a
bit.
