The commit message is still very confusing to me, not sure I understand what exactly this table means. And you still use "U&R". Also I'm a bit concerned about potential performance implications. Would be great to provide some benchmarks or some data. Probably it's ok because of we have pcp caches on top, but I'm not 100% sure. Thanks!
