Per my earlier message, both cards were resetting, scsi0 and scsi1 under
kernel 2.6.35(.x), with 2.6.34, the lag problem is gone and my machine is
back to normal again.  It is unlikely that both cards would be at fault,
in addition I spent several hours trying different things, removing the BBU
modules for example, but always staying on the 2.6.35 kernel.

I am now able to run rss2email (which ALWAYS caused the machine to lockup
and freeze until one of the controllers reset) without any problems using
2.6.34.

2.6.34.1 = good
2.6.35.x = has 3ware bug

There appears to be a bug in the commit for the 3w-9xxx updates.

On 2.6.34 now and no problems so far, I am continuing to test.
