This thread started a year ago, different people contributed various patches, some of which already got committed. Can someone please post a summary of this thread, so that it's a bit more clear what needs review/testing, what are the main open questions and so on?
I'm interested in doing some tests on the hardware I have available, but I'm not willing spending my time untangling the discussion.
I signed up for reviewing this patch. But as Amit explained later, there are two different and independent implementations to solve the problem. Since Tomas has volunteered to do some benchmarking, I guess I should wait for the results because that might influence which approach we choose.
Does that sound correct? Or do we already know which implementation is more likely to be pursued, in which case I can start reviewing that patch.
