Folks,

Ah, that jogged my memory... about two months ago I experimented a
little with the kernel source to try to tune the buffers a little as I
was going to use the machine as an FTP server for a 40GB archive.

I've now rolled back a pre-experiment kernel and everything seems to be
working fine.

Sorry about that, I'm feeling a little silly now...

Gunnar
