Dear Maintainer,

I have been using the custom aedl-kernel [config-3.16.7-ckt11-aedl.xz] on my 
dualcore
thin-client and tried to continue using it on my new PC, but it is not really 
workable.
It's behaving in an unstable way, for example when copying the contents of one 
compressed
BTRFS-partition to another one, it panicked. More often that, there are 
boot-problems,
especially upon a kernel-panic reboot hangs almost every time, it may be 
connected with
the LZO-compressed root-partition, but that normally works.
I rebuilt the kernel, leaving the
embedded-feature away and using slub instead [config-3.16.7-ckt11-adll.xz], it 
seems to be
doing well so far. I also compared that with the stock-kernel using 
phoronix-test-metrics,
but at least in the complex system test, there is not very much gain. This may 
be due to
the test being a non-interactive server-test mostly. Personally and 
subjectively I prefer
custom built AMD low-latency-kernels on the desktop, because, they make the 
system feel
more responsive.
