Avg Kernel boot time comparison in production set up:

[0] Base: 4519ms
[1] 4115ms (~400ms improvement)
[2] 4115ms (~400ms improvement)
[3] 4177ms (~340ms improvement)

Full data:
[1] 1024 sized pre-populated cache
ITR-1 ITR-2 ITR-3 ITR-4 Avg
4115 4123 4124 4107 4115

[2] Dynamic sized cache allocation/free
ITR-1 ITR-2 ITR-3 ITR-4 Avg
4122 4131 4106 4118 4115

[3] Fixed 64 sized cache
ITR-1 ITR-2 ITR-3 ITR-4 Avg
4153 4186 4198 4181 4177


[1] is my experimental patch and dirty enough to not get merged
anywhere. So, I will not push it.
