Hi Tim, thanks for reviving this. The one case where I saw that big win was one of Intels internal micro-benchmarks (SynMark). It was bottlenecking on bind/unbind of various objects and much of the overhead was in the locking there. Any real world usecase without excessive bind/unbind probably won't see any improvement.
