Right, that's why my 2009 patchset would attempt to grab the partial slab 
with the highest number of free objects to a certain threshold before 
falling back to others and it improved performance somewhat.  This was 
with the per-node partial lists, however, and the slowpath has been 
significantly rewritten since then.
