Yes. I seem to remember Moshe saying that when people badmouthed the old
2.4 VM, Alan Cox told them the VM is fine, and is the same as in FreeBSD;
Then when the new VM came out, he again said it's the same as BSD! :)
So don't trust everything you read - especially when someone compares code
he's not an expert in to another code he's not an expert in ;)
