I have to recompile the fedora kernel rpms (fc6, f7) with 8k stacks on my i686 server. It's using NFS -> XFS -> DM -> MD (raid1) -> IDE disks. With 4k stacks it crash (hang) within minutes after using NFS. With 8k stacks it's rock solid. No crashes within months. utz - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
