As a side note to this, I think it's worth noting that the kernel
currently included in the beta shows some very significant performance
increases for systems under load or currently swapping (a problem
previously mentioned on the list). The 2.6.9-39 kernel has a number of
updated features including netpoll over bonded interfaces, better acpi
handling, better NFS cache handling, an updated 3ware driver and a
fair amount of other changes. To me it's a marked improvement over the
previous kernels.
