Fwiw, we have pulled this in, along with some of the 5.10-rc1 fixes in this
area and in the load balancing code.
We found some load balancing improvements and some minor overall perf
gains in a few places, but generally did not see any difference from before
the commit mentioned here.
I'm wondering, Mel, if you have compared 5.10-rc1?
We don't have everything though so it's possible something we have
not pulled back is interacting with this patch, or we are missing something
in our testing, or it's better with the later fixes in 5.10 or ...
something else :)
I'll try to see if we can run some direct 5.8 - 5.9 tests like these.
Cheers,
Phil
