Subject: Stress testing 2.4.14-pre6
Date: Wed, 31 Oct 2001 16:57:10 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3BE073B6.BDCB3D56@redhat.com> (raw)

Hi Linus,

We've been doing some stress-testing on 2.4.14-pre6 and have encountered
a couple of problems.  The platform is an 8xPIII with 8G RAM and 32G
swap.  After running Cerberus for about 3 hours, the machine hung
completely.  I was not able to switch VC's.

Unfortunately, this is as detailed a bug report as I can submit.  It
looks like Magic SysRq is broken in this kernel.  <alt><SysRq>T will
print the column headings but nothing else.
