fops=0
1000000 bytes transferred in 4.865386 secs (205534 bytes/sec)

fops=1
1000000 bytes transferred in 2.513814 secs (397802 bytes/sec)

This would result in approx. 2us per syscall.

System is FreeBSD 6.0-CURRENT #25: Tue Nov  9 13:44:16 CET 2004  
(something like an Athlon XP 2k) with invariants and witness, without 
anything out of phk_bufwork.

No problems until now.
