I've flattened the curve a bit more since you last saw it. Would be nice if we could get j8 and j10 faster but you can't win them all. I'm not sure what happens further on - Roger indicates that perhaps 2.4 overtakes 2.6 again at j24 although the patchset he used (http://www.kerneltrap.org/~npiggin/vm/3/) performs far worse than this one at j16. This is really not a big deal IMO, but I might run it and see what happens. The systime benchmarks are just a bit of fun. They don't mean too much because I didn't measure how much work kswapd is doing... Oh, the base kernel is 2.6.2-rc3-mm1 for -np3. I'll release the patches shortly. Best regards, Nick
