The recently revealed [Meltdown and Spectre] bugs are not just extraordinary issues of security, but also performance. The patches that workaround Meltdown introduce the largest kernel performance regressions I've ever seen. Some older kernels have the KAISER patches for Meltdown, and so far the performance overheads look similar.
