Has anyone tried this? Is it good enough to move 4 production boxes to it? I realize i need to test but was wondering if anyone else can give me any pointers about upgrading.
Hi,
since this weekend i have two proxmox node with the 2.6.35 in production - the first day is without trouble
The time is too short to say much about it.

Hi,
i had no problems with the resonsible before! Also do i not overcommit the server, so ksm is not necessary for me.
I use the 2.6.35 due to the better io with windows smp guests.

I noticed that I/O 'felt' a little worse now on the 2.6.35 than quite some time ago with the 2.6.32 branch.
It's discussed briefly in this thread.
I don't have records or data from back then to support my 'hunch', so I ran a couple basic tests using the pveperf command to compare the 3 branches.
Results for 2.6.35 & 2.6.32 are posted here.
And for 2.6.18 here.
All that I was able to determine was that 2.6.18 did slightly better with regular expressions, and I/O stayed about the same.
Aside from that there was a NIC firmware issue that was quickly rectified by the devs basically as soon as it was reported- <1 day delay from that, thanks to the PVE team.
My machines aren't running hard yet, so it's still too soon to know for sure.
