Hello,

> I don't have the full context, but it seems like the complaint is a performance regression in bonnie++ and perhaps other things when tcp_hpts is loaded, even when it is not used.  Is that correct?

It's affecting overall system performance, bonnie was just a way to
get some numbers to compare.

Tomorrow I will test patch.

Thanks!
