The first two patches (generic_sendpage.patch and sendfile.patch)
should be all you need. But they were rather quick hack and I haven't
seriously looked at them for quite a while.
Maybe I should change that. Several people appear to be generally

Data dominates. If you've chosen the right data structures and organized

structures, not algorithms, are central to programming.
