 # This is "cooperative" optimization, as it reduces overall pressure
 # on memory interface. Benefits can't be observed/quantified with
 # usual benchmarks, on the contrary you can notice that single-thread
-# performance for parallelizable modes is ~1.5% worse. Special note
-# about commented 'membar' instructions, otherwise recommended by
-# manual. Rationale is following. Memory view is consistent from
-# viewpoint of processor executing the code even when ASI in question
-# is used. If thread on another processor has to access the result,
-# its availability would have to be mediated and it can be done only
-# through a syncronization operation which would requre ... 'membar'.
-# All this based on suggestions from David Miller.
+# performance for parallelizable modes is ~1.5% worse for largest
+# block sizes [though few percent better for not so long ones]. All
