Suggestion?
Of course, -mm needs testing too, and it's probably easier to find bugs here, but it's hard to check fixes: you never know if the new bugs are caused by the fix or the fix only uncovered them. So, last stable or -rc versions (at least with higher numbers) should make things faster. I've looked a bit on this first log, and it's very strange, especially stats of cpu#0. Maybe it's really about vmware or maybe there is something more, but it doesn't seem this stats_lock deadlock could've done all this mess. Anyway, it would be interesting to repeat such test with -mm after checking e.g. with 2.6.22. Thanks, Jarek P.
