Linux: 2.6.34-rc4, "Hunting A Really Annoying VM Regression"
,----[ Quote ]
| "It's been two weeks rather than the usual
| one, because we've been hunting a really
| annoying VM regression that not a lot of
| people seem to have seen, but I didn't
| want to release an -rc4 with it," began
| Linux creator Linus Torvalds, announcing
| the 2.6.34-rc4 Linux kernel. He explained,
| "we had the choice of either reverting all
| the anon-vma scalability improvements, or
| finding out exactly what caused the
| regression and fixing it. And we got
| pretty close to the point where I was
| going to just revert it all."

Choosing The Best Linux Filesystem For Your PC
,----[ Quote ]
| If youâre a Linux user, youâve likely been
| asked at some point if you want Ext3,
| Ext4, XFS, ReiserFS, Btrfs, or one of many
| other filesystem acronyms. This choice
| confuses new and old users alike, and like
| all software, the options change as
| technology improves. Many people probably
| donât care what filesystem they use as
| long as itâs stable and reasonably fast,
| but how do you know which one that is?
| This guide will attempt to cover the basic
| differences between the most common
| options, and provide the pros and cons of
| each choice.

Linux 2.6.34-rc3
,----[ Quote ]
| Ok, so -rc2 was messy, no question about
| it. I'm too much of a softie to hold back
| some peoples work, so my hard-line -rc1
| didn't work out the way I wanted. But
| next time! For sure this time.
|
| Anyway, from a messy -rc2 we now have a -
| rc3 that should be in much better shape.
| Regressions fixed, and the ShortLog is
| short enough to be worth posting to lkml (-
| rc1 never is, and -rc2 seldom is. It's not
| like -rc2's are generally wondeful, this
| time around wasn't that much different).
