System is 64 Mo RAM, no swap, 8 Mo/s sustained rate from hd.

Classzone

        + very good interactive perf., buzzes like mad but lets me
        keep typing smoothly when stressed: as things should be (none
        of the annoying few second freezeups)

Riel
        + faster than classzone (gut feeling)

        - still freezes up for seconds at odd points when
        stressed. Pressing SysREQ-p keeps dumping PCs in swap_out.

IOW, all the tuning people have done to the riel branch has paid off,
but there is still something bigtime screwed up in it.
