Sorry if this is slightly off thread topic, but I have been following
all
the posts here and have seen nothing, so I had to ask...

If I have a 2.2-based RAID should I still not upgrade yet to 2.4 RAID?

Is this still a problem with the 2.4 kernels? I would like to upgrade
my systems to 2.4 for the increased networking performance, but I heard
(old news?) that 2.4 RAID still has some way to go before it's scalable
or even stable.
Is this still the case?
