On the second reading, if you are asking how fast a shootdown operation itself 
is, then yes, it will probably not help you :)

I asked for tlb something? :) tlb - TLB size and latency benchmark ... tlb 
tries to determine the size, in pages, of the TLB. The largest amount of memory 
it will examine is len bytes. ... Once the TLB boundary is located tlb reports 
the TLB miss latency as the TLB latency for twice as many pages as the TLB can 
hold. I am not this will tell anything about TLB _shootdown_ performance of SMP 
systems. Perhaps I wasn't specific enough in my original question. -- Andriy
