      This can be seen easily when running a high performance test (1000s of rps) with multiple threads (10+) and comparing the performance between replset and master/slave.

      This can be seen easily when running a high performance test (1000s of rps) with multiple threads (10+) and comparing the performance between replset and master/slave.

      When doing high performance benchmark with a 2 shard cluster, throughput was 2.5x higher when using master/slave rather than replset.
      This is obviously a huge performance degradation.
      From profiling it seems due to the many calls to DBClientReplicaSet.getServerAddress() which take a lock.
      By applying the tiny provided patch that caches the value, the issue goes away.
