How weird,

The author has certainly received many detailed questions from me, and
has simply not answered them.

Problem with prefetch is that it's quite a lot of code, in different
places, and zero documentation on how it works and which bit does what.

Cc'ing the author (Krzysztof) and attaching the outstanding questions,
hopefully we can get this moving!
