I did find performance dropped off substantially in interbench but usually below the human perceptible range. Real time performance dropped off substantially, but is back to mainline performance when disabled (ie config on but disabled at runtime/boottime). > But dtck > reproducibly breaks software-suspend2; the kernel will simply stall on > resume.
