I'm confused. You say serf/v1 is faster because of the baseline cache,
and that the cache is not used by serf/v2. Does that mean serf/v1 is
faster than neon/v1 or that serf/v1 is faster than serf/v2?

I hope you mean that serf/v1 is faster than neon/v1 and that serf/v2 is
also fast because the v2 protocol means the cache is unneeded. How does
serf/v2 compare to neon/v2?
