a little faster than rmap15 here (and a lot faster than vanilla)

2.4.19-rmap15a [5]      119.0   61      9       4       1.65

a little faster during large reads

2.4.19 [3]              100.0   72      33      3       1.38
2.4.19-rmap15 [3]       105.3   72      37      5       1.46
2.4.19-rmap15a [5]      111.4   66      31      3       1.54

Seems a little slower here. I wonder if it's just because of the artificial 
nature of the actual memory load used in the test, or if it's a true slowdown 
during periods of memory stress?


These contest benchmarks for rmap15a show only small differences between 
rmap15 and rmap15a with more speedups than slowdowns.
