I have a regression and performance test suite that I run before committing VM code (believe it or not), and NFS doesn't pass a critical test (paging.) It panics the system with an infamous biodone error, and I will try to track it down tomorrow. I am freezing the current state of my VM work, except for bugfixes, and perhaps some threads or AIO things (which are not part of the core system.) Hopefully, we will be stable (with some anecdotal evidence) soon, and I want to track (watch) the VFS layering changes carefully. All of the above will fill my available time. I think that the system is very close to stable again, with the NFS caveat. Once I can solve the (very reproduceable) problem, I will be much happier with NFS. There are also some outstanding bugfixes for NFS, which I am working with in my local tree... -- John | Never try to teach a pig to sing, dyson@freebsd.org | it just makes you look stupid, jdyson@nc.com | and it irritates the pig.
