Unfortunately, no; this is the first performance test of USAGI vs Linux. :-)

Good news. :-)

I think this is because we're trying to use simple, readable code and to
avoid (rather) giant lock.


Though we do not know much about performance, but I think we should 
consider, test and enhance it.


Thanks for your information.
