Verified. These numbers reflect my measurements as well. I have not moved off 2.6.9 to newer kernels on shipping products due to these issues. There are also serious stability issues as well, though 2.6.14 seems a little better than than previous kernels. Jeff These issues aren't going to fix themselves. Did you investigate any of the performance or (more importantly) stability problems? Jeff Yes I did. The list wasn't too long. I had problems with RCU messages
and irq warn messages at very high loads and init respawning itself

Performance was down on disk I/O [vs.] 2.6.9. I did not investigate
the BIO fixes but something changed there. Theres also some memory
problems with corruption somewhere in the 2.6.14 (during module unload
and shutdown).
