Comment (by jg):

 This has been seen running on the Geode.

 I dunno if we'll ship this in our first release or not.

 But it is less out of the question than when last commented on.

 We also have to measure to see if it significantly helps power; it does
 get the ticks down, despite a number of stupid apps/kernel items, to about
 50/second, in the first experiment that Marcelo performed.
