Running it right now on SA110. Seems at least as stable as the old pmap.
It has survived the overnight INN expire and daily jobs. Some of the INN
related stuff definately appears to go a bit quicker.

Doing a 'dd if=/dev/zero of=file bs=32768' from another machine used to
cripple the machine so much that all other processes would appear to
freeze. The new code allows everything to keep responding.

A nice improvement.

Thanks.
