Hi Rik,

I'm afraid there's something quite buggy in this second patch. When
booting with this patch, performance started out as "OK, much better
than -ac7 plain and perhaps also better than the previous patch, we're
getting there, but not as impressive as pre9 yet".

Then, when overloading the memory a bit using Mozilla and Netscape at
the same time, I noticed that performance started degrading to the
point of unusable.

And then I looked at top, and saw that it report NO SWAP USED!

I'm looking forward to version 3 though!
