Request a CPU private mapping from sf_buf_alloc(). If the swap-backed
memory disk is larger than the number of available sf_bufs, this improves performance on SMPs by eliminating interprocessor TLB shootdowns. For example, with 6656 sf_bufs, the default on my test machine, and a 256MB swap-backed memory disk, I see the command "dd if=/dev/md0 of=/dev/null bs=64k" achieve ~489MB/sec with the default, shared mappings, and ~587MB/sec with CPU private mappings.
