Yup. I took over and somewhat froze.. I have some stuff partially done (and that actually works) that changes the batching, moving it away from per-cpu and improving the latency situation but I wasn't to happy with some aspects of the resulting patches, and finally got pulled on various other things, so this work took the dust.
I can try to dig my stuff out when I'm back from travelling, in a week or so, if there is some interest. I was thinking about looking at it again anyway.
Cheers, Ben.
