The benchmarks are impressive! What were you using to benchmark it? > BTW, why 2.4.0-test? kernel crashes on the mount? > Is there any solution on the mount problem? I'm looking into it. I think it's that potato has an older version of mount, but I'm not sure about this yet (just realised this yesterday, pre-sleep). I also noticed some "niceness" problems that keeps some userspace apps from running with test4-pre6, but I've seen some patches on the kernel list that might help. I'll probably beat on the kernel a bit tonight and see if I can get things improved a bit. C
