A long while back, I caught WA_WEIGHT causing firefox's event thread
pool to stack on a single CPU. In that particular case, the victims
(32 of 'em in 8 rq box!) did nothing but go back to sleep, so no real
harm was done. However, I also measured modest real stacking impact, so
gave task_h_load() a floor on GP.
Perhaps weightless burst stacking is a bigger deal for some than it was
here? That firefox event thread burst showed potential.
