For those of us who run multiuser systems we can't stand to reboot every
other day, for various debugging reasons.  I've been stable, and fast on
several Dual Ppro200 servers, with 2.0.35 (RH 5.1), with never a lockup.
The only problems I get are NFS related, where the mountd daemon dies for
some unknown reason..
