Re: [Bugme-new] [Bug 15618] New: 2.6.18->2.6.32->2.6.33 huge regression in performance

[Anton Starikov]

Tomorrow I will try to patch and check 2.6.33 and see are this patches enough to restore performance or not, because on 2.6.33 kernel performance issue also used to involve somehow crgoup business (and performance was terrible even comparing to broken 2.6.32). If it will not fix 2.6.33, then I will ask to reopen the bug, otherwise I will post to stable@.

Thanks again for help,
Anton.
