This might be good to test on brutus, no?

Hence my inquiry to you folks about brutus. :-)

Good experience to hear. If we were to find a similar problem with GSX on
brutus, I expect that VMware would want to know, and we could offer to try
ESX in the same configuration, although I would not take brutus down to do
it. I'd test it on one of the other x345s first, assuming there is still
one unused.
Anyhow, give it some thought. :-)
