So I removed the dust from my unmatched and ran the benchmarks I proposed:
Without this patch:
* benchmark from commit 43b3dfdd0455 (4 runs) : ~20.3s
* same benchmark with threads (4 runs) : ~27.4s
With this patch:
* benchmark from commit 43b3dfdd0455 (4 runs) : ~17.9s
* same benchmark with threads (4 runs) : ~18.1s
So a small improvement for the single thread benchmark, but it depends
on the number of pages that get flushed, so to me that's not
applicable for the general case. For the same benchmark with multiple
threads, that's ~34% improvement. I'll add those numbers to the v2,
and JIsheng if you can provide some too, I'll add them too!
