Glyn,
I just tried to transfer large files between netbsd and windows. That is 
the only computers I have. I made a big 10GB file using dd from 
/dev/zero then tried to transfer it to windows. I could only transfer 
4GB because my windows filesystem is fat32 so the file size is limited. 
But I could transfer 4GB 3 times without qube ever locking up or 
anything of the sort. So I assume my qube is stable.
I am running netbsd-3 kernel from cvs and 3.1 userland. Until I rebuilt 
kernel with SOSEND_NO_LOAN option my box crashed regularly but after 
that I discovered new faith in netbsd :) It seems stable enough as 
webserver.

Regards,
Alex
