I had a look at the numbers. It's a lot of stuff and hard to parse for
me... I am not sure what you mean by "contradict the numbers"? Can you explain
in more detail?
However, I agree with your thought about STORM-855 #694 It basically
reduces the contention on the output queue, because less calls are made here. I
profiled Storm once and observed that on high-end data-rates (when we hit the
wall) the contention on the output-queue is the bottleneck (the writing and
reading thread have to lock the queue and a lot of waiting for the lock
consumes a fair share of the consumed time).
