I'm running the preempt patch on 2.4.18. My mp3 player was skipping when the system was under load, and the preempt patch mostly fixed that. I have to work much harder to make it skip now. The system is generally more responsive as well. I haven't had any stability issues, so as far as I'm concerned it's a real win.
