Hi,
I spent some time today porting the new VM patch to
2.4.0-test7-pre4, *and* tuning the new VM patch for
performance (yesterday's one wasn't tuned yet).
The new patch should be fine for general use and is
available at http://www.surriel.com/patches/2.4.0-t7p4-vmpatch2
The only thing "unstable" with this patch is that it
seems to catch an SMP race in filemap.c, simply because
this patch has debugging code that isn't in the stock
kernel (and the stock kernel would corrupt the lru list).
regards,
Rik
