Do we mean "rocks" or simply "does not suck"?

I have not followed the kernel development mailing list for a very
long time... Does anyone know why the linux kernel often seems to lurch
back and forth with respect to VM/memory management?

I remember a terrible sequence of kernels late in 2.1.x development
where VM/MM got really bad and for a few cycles people would say, oh
that's been fixed in 2.1.x+1, but it wasn't (maybe it was fixed for
*their* machine). That was the last time I ran the current linux kernel
on any of my machines...  I'm sad to see this go-round of poor VM is
evidently still settling out after 10 cranks of the stable 2.4 series!
