Hi there,

Recently I started testing 2.6 stable on my firewall box here, I 
work via ssh terminals to firewall and have a good feel for the 
CLI responsiveness.

The test?  Just a simple display the apache access log, but it is 
very slow with 2.6 kernels (2.6.14.5, 2.6.14.6, 2.6.15):

2.4.32-hf32.1:
