We maintain a list of memory ranges for /proc/kcore, which usually has 10-20 entries. Currently, every single read from /proc/kcore walks the entire list in order to count the number of entries and compute some offsets. These values only change when the list of memory ranges changes, which is very rare (only when memory is hot(un)plugged). We can cache the values when the list is populated to avoid these redundant walks. In my benchmark, this reduces the time per read by another 20 nanoseconds on top of the previous change, from 215 nanoseconds per read to 195.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
