Box is an R51 Thinkpad, 1.7GHz Pentium M. I'm using a make -j 5 as a test load. With 2.6.21-rc2-mm2, I get slightly sluggish response for opening new terminals, scrolling in Galeon, and a bit jerky behaviour for spinning Beryl's 3D desktop. Playing MP3s off an sshfs FUSE mount works fine. Typing across ssh sessions has no noticeable lag. Mouse pointer movement is smooth. With 2.6.21-rc3-mm1, terminals take longer to open, Galeon is noticeably more sluggish, and Beryl's desktop switching goes from being jerky to a 5-second agony. Typing in shells, remote or not, lags noticeably. Mouse pointer is alternately smooth or jerky. But MP3s still work great! Problems persist with make -j 2 and make. -- Mathematics is the supreme nostalgia of our time.
