First of all an update: all in all it took three hours and two out of
four bulk loads terminated with errors.

UKT = User Kernel Task?  And why is no UKT getting time?  At least one
per processor should, shouldn't it?

Ok, we'll redo the test with settings 2 and 4 and see what happens if
it locks up.

Still I feel a bit uncomfortable with this as I don't understand what
happens here.

Kind regards
