If you feel adventurous you can try my rmap based VM, the latest version is on:
http://surriel.com/patches/2.4/2.4.17-rmap-8
This VM should behave a bit better (it does on my machines), but isn't yet bug-free enough to be used on production machines. Also, the changes it introduces are, IMHO, too big for a stable kernel series ;)
