Okay, I'm gathering data as we speak, but, would you still want to see
this data from a news box, if I had *not* been noticing major performance
problems, just to have some numbers to drool over?
Regardless, I'll keep running the patchset on this lightly-loaded news
box (-stable) which seems to be pretty responsive...
thanks!
