There isn't a solution, but that's _just_ performance, and they know what 
the problem is (UXA support in the kernel).  The issues in the bug are not 
even identified.

Fine, and my answer was that there isn't a solution because nobody has 
properly identified the problem - pointing to a page that doesn't even
