I have been checking today pre7-8 + manfred patch.
(test as always while (true); do time ./mmap002; done).
Things have improved a lot from pre7-6, but they are not perfect.

With that patch I have obtained the following times:

real 2m41.772s
user 0m16.610s
sys 0m12.470s

(this is a typical value, there are fluctuations between 2m35 and
2m54).
It begin to kill processes after the 10th iteration. After that, the
machine freezes.

The results for pre7-8 + manfred patch + andrea classzone 27 is

real 2m7.622s
user 0m15.480s
sys 0m8.240s

(almost no variations between runs +-1second). And it is rock solid
here, no freezes at all.

The results for 2.2.15 are:

real 1m57.619s
user 0m16.320s
sys 0m11.820s

but it kills processes after 10/12 iterations.

I hope this helps.

Later, Juan.
