As you mentioned above, I tested it again with the revision
v1.0-327-g39a7a36, which includes the commit 39a7a36.
Result is though still not good enough.
seqread : 20.3 MByte/s
seqwrite : 20.1 MByte/s
randread : 20.5 MByte/s
randwrite : 20.0 MByte/s
My qemu-kvm commandline is like below:

As you see, /dev/ram0 is being mapped to /dev/vdb on the guest side,
which is used for fio tests.
Here is a sample of fio output:

So I think, the patch for coroutine-ucontext isn't about the bottleneck
I'm looking for.

p.s. Sorry for the late reply. Last week I was on vacation.
