Hi Steve,

Jens Axboe did some profiling on his big test rig and I think we found
the biggest CPU problems.  The end result is now setting in the master
branch of the btrfs-unstable repo.

On his boxes, btrfs went from around 400MB/s streaming writes to 1GB/s
limit, and we're now tied with XFS while using less CPU time.

Hopefully you will see similar results ;)
