Speaking of delays to get an SRB going, why are there sometimes such HUGE  
delays?  I have seen it take upwards of 1/10 of a second to dispatch a  global 
SRB on a 48 MIPS (whatever that is) CPU.  And since cross-memory  post 
schedules an SRB to do the post, that means a cross-memory post may  also take 
upwards 
of 1/10 of a second.

Greetings,

Other than waiting for a swap-in of the target address space,
I cannot think of any reason that it should take upwards of
1/10 of wall clock time to dispatch a global SRB.
