Hi Brandon.  Thanks for helping out with large scale testing of the
patch!  Did you compare the accuracy of the 16,384 reverse-resolves
(e.g. what percentage succeeded, since it sounds like they all should
have in an ideal case) between the patched and unpatched versions?
Performance alone only tells half the story.
