I've been using it on my own machine, and gone through all the commits (not that I shouldn't go through some of them some more), and am personally really excited about it. It's seldom we see major performance improvements in core code that are quite that noticeable, and Nick's whole RCU pathname lookup in particular just tickles me pink.
