Hello Chenyu,

I fear at that point we'll have too many cachelines and too much
cache pollution when the CPU starts reading this at tick to schedule
a newidle balance.

A 128 core system would bring in 128 * 64B = 8kB worth of data to
traverse the mask and at that point it becomes a trade off between
how fast you want reads vs writes and does it even speed up writes
after a certain point?

Sorry I got distracted by some other stuff today but I'll share the
results from my experiments tomorrow.

Thanks and Regards,
Prateek
