There is still more potential in the optimizations we've already made.
We've made these changes on a step-by-step basis so we could evaluate each
change and study not only how it changed performance but why. There are
still many changes we've seen that we haven't actually studied in detail
that we believe to be worthy of more study. These include better handling
of the cache in certain parts of the operating system and cache preloads.
