You dont see many positive reports on this ML, but here's
one...

I have a linux box w/ a Pentium 100 and 16M ram + 17m swap.
(glibc 2.1.3, gcc 2.95.2-debian woody/slackware mix, latest
binutils, etc.)

2.3.99pre7-pre2 was fine, but pre7-pre4, -pre6, pre8 release,
and pre9-pre1 were unusuable to me. Massive swapping and
high load when running anything non-trivial.

patching to Andreas classzone-28 and lfs-lock-8 really works
well here. Performance seems to be at least as good as the
older 2.3.99's and is probably quite a bit better.

It's survived all the beatings I've given it so far.
