They patch and run fine even with search_reada-5 (from this list) and this funny-fast-responding HZ=1000 setting @ 2.4.22-pre5 at the moment (greatest: no handcrafting needed on here with mostly only rml-preempt (except for "fixing" this one) ;-) ). And as I subjectively feel, after 2.4.21-final it goes like you say: "performance is nice and smooth" now. The "smoothness" (however one may measure, I keep listening to my near notebook disks for now) seems to have increased greatly with 2.4.22-pre(3&5). E.g no unneeded often disk transfers take place as they did in 2.4.21-final. And desktop usage patterns (loading Netscape 7.1, OOo 1.1 and some overheaded apps like that) didn't slowdown in any kind. Great work done for ReiserFS!!! Many thanks to the whole team, Manuel [OT: BTW, if someone experienced performance problems with OpenOffice 1.0.x_y just try OOo 1.1rc1 - it's amazingly fast and fixes many prereleases' problems, too.]
