Hello. I'd like to propose making a spec freeze exception for rootwrap-daemon-mode spec [1]. Its goal is to save agents' execution time by using daemon mode for rootwrap and thus avoiding python interpreter startup time as well as sudo overhead for each call. Preliminary benchmark shows 10x+ speedup of the rootwrap interaction itself. This spec have a number of supporters from Neutron team (Carl and Miguel gave it their +2 and +1) and have all code waiting for review [2], [3], [4]. The only thing that has been blocking its progress is Mark's -2 left when oslo.rootwrap spec hasn't been merged yet. Now that's not the case and code in oslo.rootwrap is steadily getting approved [5].
