I recently updated -stingr series kernel to version s45. This will add a
couple of wli's hashes, parts from -aa tree, large (>2G) file support to
smbfs, and Ingo's irqrate.
This is currently installed on my proxy server and now I have CPU usage
reduced from excessive to reasonable value (50%). I believe credits for this
improvements should go to wli.
