This was like completely dead. I see that other people are having a hard time w/ CFQ and 2.6.8.1 however all related to swap. I think I will see what I can do w/ 2.6.8.1 and AS. Now that emerge has finished w/ scanning the portage tree, even though I am reading MP3's from nfs and untar'ing source from NFS all is well. I can't reboot just now, but soon. Also, right now I am compiling a bunch of updates to Gentoo, and I am experiancing great success. So it could be a regression, but I don't know. I just tried a couple more things, and am re-scanning w/ emerge, and the behaviour has returned. My rdesktop sessions are as smooth as glass, but anything local is tanking. thanks, Joshua
