My 2p... I've used the 2.6 series (& keep up to date often) for quite some time and have only had problems with configuring it. Once it has been up and running I've (touch wood) not had a UML kernel keel over, and my UMLs are up 24/7. Some of them (eg gentoo build/rsync/update host - emerge -puv world in crontab) get really hammered every day, all have the whole filesystem (2-6 gigs) rsynced to a backup server every day (which seems to exercise most of the memory while rsync builds its tree of changes). All in all it seems pretty stable. Cheers!
