This is good to hear. I am interested in testing it in some of my real-life situations where performance is slower due to the high latency. This mostly affects the boot time of Xen guests. I have added kernel caching back into my local version (which only adds 200 lines). It improves Xen guest boot performance significantly, but does not affect dbench performance. I will be interested to see what kind of performance I can get from your ringbuffer version, as well as possibly a combination of the two.
