Thanks for your perspective, Dave. From what I understand, distributions lag behind, user kernel configurations can be varied, and Kirill's patch set is still untested with regards to memory latency of workloads. We may yet see folks opt for a slow boot for better latency. This protocol is for safety purposes, since "hope is not a strategy" as is commonly said at Google.
