I think what it tells us is:
- If you only count the mapping of the region, -current is
faster. This is probably due to Andrew Brown's map entry
merging changes.
- Servicing the page fault later is not faster in -current
than it was in 1.6.
(In your first test, you were still performing the mapping operations,
you just weren't faulting in any pages except the first one.)
