Amazing! I've not had a chance to upgrade a server to 2.4 yet, though I've long imagined that the results would be similar. I imagine the biggest performance boost you received is due to the built-in multi-threading that the 2.4 kernel enjoys which is currently lacking in the 2.2 kernel.

Walt, a possible reason is that fsync is much faster in Linux-2.4 than in 2.2. Check that the combined size of your log files is 50 % - 100% of the buffer pool size. Small log files cause more disk i/o and more fsyncs. The kernel 2.4.4-SMP-64GB has been very stable on our 2-way computer.
