Hi,

Consistent oops with 2.4.23pre6aa3 after 3-4 hours running bonnie on 
ext3 fs through qla2300 HBA. (w SMP, HIGHMEM) The test machine was 
completely wedged so I ended up transcribing the oops from the vga 
console. No typos I think.

As an aside: we're running 2.4.19pre10aa4 on a few high-load fileservers 
with 2.5G RAM and have been running into the same problem mentioned a 
month or so ago (Subject: "Strange dcache memory pressure when highmem 
enabled"). I had been suspicious of the dcache for quote a while so that 
thread rang true. I guessed that a later 2.4aa kernel would be a good 
approach. Anyone had success with a more recent one?   2.4.19pre10aa4 
has been rock-solid, and if it weren't for the dcache performance hit 
(and the ever increasing server load) I'd rather stick with it.
