Please hang on a while longer. The common pool updates enabled addressing
issues mainly including the very long wakeup times sometimes seen on
power-managed, core-fused, and oddly scheduled platforms, but I haven't
yet checked in all the corresponding changes because I'm still testing,
and will then want Aleksey to help confirm impact on lambda-libs
before fully committing. ETA is still about a week.
