I haven't had a panic yet..... touch wood. I am > using INN 1.5.1 with it. Running 2.2-CURRENT on newsfeeds.sol.net, inn1.5.1. It's hard to compare to 2.1.5 for several reasons. I have a 2.1.5 box similarly configured, running inn1.4unoff4. newsfeeds is a PPro200 with 256MB RAM, the other's a P200 with 256MB RAM. My impression is that 2.2-C handles VM thrashing differently, because interactive response starts to go downhill when things get busy. On the other hand, I/O performance seems spectacular. No panics, no real complaints, it's fast and efficient. ...
