Will lazy page table instantiation speed up fork(2) without rmap? If so, then you've got a problem, because rmap will still be slower than non-rmap. Linus will happily grab any speedup and make that the new baseline against which new schemes are compared :-)

I guess the difference here is "optimised for lmbench" vs. "optimised to be stable in real workloads" ;)
