Are there other kernel options that might be useful to try?

Incidentally, already found that one and I'm trying it currently on one of the boxes. So far there's been no issues, but it's only been since Friday.

Also, I found this:

There's a 4.4 kernel here built for Xen Dom0, which I'm giving a whirl to see how stable it is, also only since Friday. I'm not using anything else he's packaged from his repo.

On a related note, does the SIG have plans to replace the 3.18 kernel which is marked as projected EOL of January 2017 (https://www.kernel.org/category/releases.html)?
