Thanks!

My general feeling is "yes" on backpatching, particularly if this is a 
bug and it's fixable without ABI breaks.

My comments were around performing additional workload benchmarking just 
to ensure people feel comfortable that we're not introducing any 
performance regressions, and to consider the Feb 2023 release as the 
time to introduce this (vs. Nov 2022). That gives us ample time to 
determine if there are any performance regressions introduced.

Thanks,

Jonathan
