What is the best I can get right now? I'm running Gerd/SuSE's 2.6.0-test9, but I'm having severe problems with periodic crashes. These appear to be preceded by a 'do_io' error on /dev/hdb, but I've bumped all ulimits to large levels, including max files (100000). (There seems to be conflicting notes about whether I need a modified glibc or headers updated and the host kernel recompiled.) The system runs well for a while and then just disappears. I've had trouble compiling with some of the recent 2.6.0/2.6.1 patches and I need clarification. I have noticed that paging an executable (like Python) in takes much more time that it would natively and that large amounts of disk I/O is slow. Where is the bottleneck for this and what can be done about it? (I realized that the virtual layering is going to cost some.)
