Marcelo saw a 30% speed increase from 2.4.4 to 2.4.5pre3 on several tests.
At the moment the main issues left seem to be: - balancing the inode + dentry caches versus the rest of the memory users (I'm working on it now) - simplifying __alloc_pages() a bit (I've got some things ready but I'm waiting for some other people who say they also have some stuff to add) - making sure we get rid of all the highmem flushing deadlocks ... there may still be a few around (ben, marcelo?)
