Ok. It does seem to also reset the active file page counts back, so
that part did seem to be related, but yeah, from a performance
standpoint that was clearly not a major issue.

Let's hope Dave can figure out something based on his numbers, because
I'm out of ideas. Or maybe it's the pagefault-atomic thing that
Christoph was looking at.
