SubjectRe: 2.4.0-testx fr0kedness?
I can try that, although it doesn't seem to hold true that 1) The load
average would reflect the sluggishness I'm seeing, and 2) w and ps and
that would hang but other programs would continue to run fine. I'll try
to get some strace output in a w or something next time it happens.
