Hi:
  It took us a while to understand the minor difference between bottom
halves and tasklets. Now, there are two questions have to solve

  (1) Since tasklets are BETTER than bottom halves (that's the information I
gathered from the internet) then why on earth that so many people used
bottom halves before? Any historical reasons....

  (2) HOW do we know which to use? Bottom halves or tasklets? Any design
issues? Or we just use tasklets whenever possible?

thanks
