I just built and installed 1.6L out of CVS today and still having problems=20
with the machine locking up during heavy I/O as a NFS server. At least=20
it's not locking up during other I/O operations now, or at least I couldn't =
get it to hang. After installing the 1.6L kernel I was able to build the=20
entire userland with a -j4 without it hanging.
FTP speed is much better I had previously reported 2.19 megabyte/second,=20
tonight I got 5.2 megabyte/second. There were still several pauses for no=20
apparent reason during the download, though, some lasting several seconds.
If anybody makes any CVS commits wrt this problem let me know and I will=20
update and test.
