[...] Theodore, thanks for the extensive reply, I hope it helped Nicholas and I learned a bit from it. However, I'm very unsure what to do with all this (high quality) information as it seems not really in scope to talk about in the release notes and if it is, it's way too long. @Nicholas, I suggest you turn this bug into a Wiki page (assuming Theodore is fine with that) or something like that to expose this information to a broader audience. If after doing that, you still think there's something relevant to mention in the release notes, we'd have a place to point at for more background information and can keep the release note short. In that case, similar to your other bug report about cgroups, I'd appreciate a (draft) proposal for text to include. Paul
