Interestingly, XFS even survives looped+parallel Bonnie++2 - only when I let it run overnight, in the morning the box was stuck with a Machine Check Exception. This is a dual Xeon Irwindale at 3 GHz, so far it's always been rock-solid under 32bit operating systems. Difficult for me to say if the CPU's indeed have a problem or if this is some sorta compatibility bug... Anyway it's unlikely to be a XFS-related issue. I've checked the thermocouple paste on my heatsinks and I'll try again tonight with "nomce"...
