do you have an actual count of percpu variables for your config?

That's a very reasonable question...

10x seems a lot to me

Me too. This was a "make the problem go away now please" type of "fix". :)


this might be a workaround, but we should make encoder->percpu.vars
dynamically allocated like we do for functions

Yes, that's a much better design imho.
