The Big Linux 2.6.35 Kernel Problem Is Fixed
Last week we reported on a disastrous bug within the Linux 2.6.35 kernel that while this kernel is still months from being officially released, a major regression was introduced that slaughtered the Linux system's performance. This was experienced across multiple systems, architectures, and file-systems. Today we can officially report that this problem has been resolved.
With yesterday's automated kernel tests via our Phoromatic-powered test farm that monitors the Linux kernel performance on a daily basis with the results being available at kernel-tracker.phoromatic.com. Using the 2 June kernel from the Ubuntu mainline PPA no longer causes a major performance hit and all of the test result values have returned to their levels prior to this kernel bug that lasted about one week.
