I'm running it on a dual P3-550 with 256MB ram with CONFIG_SMP and no problems whatsoever although it hasn't been worked 'real' hard yet. (load no higher than 4) ;) Figured I'd give some positive feedback about the patch. If you want, Rob, I could run some benchmarks on this against an unpatched kernel, or if you have some ideas for me to really stress this thing to see if it breaks, let me know. -- Gregory Finch
