This is from April 2009 - more than 6.5 years old. It talks of Linux 2.4 vs. 2.6. We now have Linux 4.2; don't take this link too serious without checking if it is still valid for recent kernels.
The most valuable answer was last edited in 2012 with the comments from 2014. So I would assume that it is still valid even for 4.3. Are you aware of any significant changes in this field ? Anyway the topic starter mentioned RedHat, the kernel version must be quite ancient there :)
