Thanks Nick - seems exemplary so far. No stuttering or swap thrashing under the time-honoured UT2004 test, even with some phat desktop apps sitting in memory.
I'm still running on 2.6.9-ck1 for now. Is there anything else you want me to try? Presumably VM scanning work is ongoing for 2.6.10? I might give -rc1 a spin, just for fun....
Cheers Alastair
