Patched with Andrea's 2.2.18aa1, with more loads, latency always minor 1-2 seconds. Impossible to reproduce 75 seconds!

2.2.18 vanilla on SMP, latency
Same latencies as 2.2.16 and 2.2.17 vanilla, over 75 seconds to wait on an other screen! And top(1) on a serial VT510 freezes. Machine loaded with 2 setiathome and Doug Ledford's memtest. ASUS P2B-DS Dual PIII550 1024MB memory, only SCSI devices (no IDE!). Andrea Arcangeli's ..17pre6aa2, ..18pre17aa1 and ..18pre21aa2 reduced the latency <2 secs.
