My SMP log, updated to account for TSO/GSO monkey-wrench.

(<bleep> truckload of time <bleep> wasted chasing unbisectable
<bleepity-bleep> tso gizmo. <bleep!>)

SMP config, same as UP kernels tested, except SMP.

tbench -t 60 4 localhost followed by four 60 sec netperf
TCP_RR pairs, each pair on it's own core of my Q6600.
