Linux Desktop Virtualization Shootout

,----[ Quote ]
| Computer Virtualization has many uses, from 
| increasing server capacity and reducing 
| power consumption to making it easier to 
| test and develop software or to simply run a 
| different Operating System on your computer. 
| Virtualization has become an important 
| aspect of the functionality of todays 
| computers and computer Operating Systems. 
| Many that are new to Linux or new to 
| Virtualization often are overwhelmed by the 
| number of Virtualization options the Linux 
| Desktop has and often ask: "What 
| Virtualization Solution is best suited for 
| my needs". This article will hopefully 
| answer this question and others like it.

File-System Benchmarks With The Linux 2.6.34 Kernel

,----[ Quote ]
| File-system benchmarks have become quite 
| common to Phoronix in the age of EXT4 and 
| Btrfs with these new file-systems driving much 
| of the interest and as we have also been 
| finding the Linux file-system performance to 
| change between kernel releases (and in some 
| cases, the performance has changed a great 
| deal). Most recently we delivered benchmarks 
| of EXT4 vs. Btrfs vs. Reiser4, but now a month 
| later we are back with more Linux file-system 
| benchmarks as we look to see if the disk 
| performance has changed with the Linux 2.6.34 
| kernel.

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."
