I think the really interesting stuff was actually how they got the single
thread processing so damn much with the various data structure and code
optimisations, but I like the idea of using the ring buffer disruptor thing
to avoid any two processes writing to the same cache line to maximise
performance in the queue. Is that the same sort of idea the the TX window in
PGM uses then?
