Hello,

I have recently seen some patches for slabcache related
xfs_inode/xfs_vnode_t/dentry_cache taking up alot of memory:

If I cvs on linux-2.6-xfs, is it stable for production or bleeding?

Hi Eric,

im running cvs since 14th Feb. quite stable on my home laptop ( well, some days before, there was this funny thing with the slabcache which caused a nice deadlock on shutdown ). I use the cvs kernels since ... well, years ... and they are mostly stable, but it is always a good idea to have a working kernel bootable.

At the moment it is still 2.6.24-rcX, the guys at SGI seem to be very busy, so nobody did the update to 2.6.24 ( or 2.6.25-rc2 ).

Ciao
Klaus
