      Workload with many threads doing simple small point queries shows a large performance regression between 3.5.8 and 3.5.9, and all subsequent 3.6 and 4.0 versions. On a 24-core bare metal machine the regression on one test is about 25%; on a larger 64-core virtualized machine (m3.4xlarge) the regression is about 70%.

      A git bisect identifies the following commit as the culprit:
