This is precisely the conclusion which davem and myself came to, and 
explained at the beginning of this whole ordeal.  It all boils down to 
the complexity of the algorithm, and the fact that the number of cache 
misses scales with that.

Can we get on with merging pgcl to mitigate some of the rmap costs now?  ;-)
