No problem! If there is a performance regression in the upcoming release, then fixes will be accepted. For example, if QEMU 7.1 was fast but the upcoming QEMU 7.2 release is going to be slow then a performance fix will be accepted to avoid a regression in 7.2. On the other hand, if it's a fix for something that was already slow in the last release (7.1), then it's less likely to be accepted during freeze. These are general guidelines and maintainers have a say in what gets merged. In this case I looked at the pull request and I wasn't sure if you had decided based on these guidelines or not. It helps when it's clear from the commit message (or from the commit description in more involved cases) that the commit fixes a bug or has some other justification. Thanks, Stefan
