Ok, add my box to the list. Variety of post 2.4.18 kernels, -ac's, -rc's,
etc... all demonstrate it to one degree or another.

Lately it's gotten REALLY bad.

Currently I'm using 21-rc2-ac2 and it freezes for upwards of 15 sec
regularly when I'm exercising the HD (three simultaneous brag threads
downloading from various newsgroups). The mouse moves, but other than
that, X is entirely unresponsive. An xterm with continually scrolling
text, for example, will appear to stop scrolling until the kernel comes
back.

The HD light is on solid the whole time.

21-rc2 does it too. I haven't tried anything later than that yet. Well, I
tried 20-ck7 and it ate my RAID0 due to a DMA-ism and I've not tested
anything else since. :(
