Ditto CPU wise.  The impact of even modest waker/wakee concurrency is
considerable.  For much of netperf, the post-wakeup tail becomes a CPU
service latency injection for the wakee when unnecessarily stacked. 
While cache misses sting, those hurt.

As box approaches saturation, stacking of somewhat synchronous stuff
becomes a better bet.  Aiming for having only waker's tail between
wakee and CPU has decent chance of being a winner in a box full of
wider obstacles.
