The original set it was suggested that having all these threads around that 99.99999% of users don't need was a waste and why not start them when needed. Also I asked why you couldn't just schedule_work the jobs onto CPUs instead.
I don't recall seeing a reply to that - and it doesn't appear fixed here ?
