Now, I have timings and vmstat output during this command...
bunzip2 -c /usr/src/linux-2.4.0-test7.tar.bz2 > /root/temp-`uname -r` 2>&1

2.4.0-test7-vmpatch2b-time
271.98s user 17.87s system 63% cpu 7:37.61 total

cat 2.2.16-9mdk-time
32.07s user 1.22s system 96% cpu 34.646 total

And vmstat output for the entirety of each run as attatchments to this
email. Once again, I've got 128 megs of RAM, and it's a PIII 500
Toshiba.

Binutils 2.9.5.0.31
Gcc 2.95.3 19991030 (prerelease)

If there is a bug here, I'd love to see it found, but also, if I'm the
bug, help me find out what the hell I'm doing wrong!

 Your eyes are weary from staring at the CRT. You feel sleepy. Notice how
