“The Linux 2.6.23 kernel has been released today and we have
some preliminary benchmarks of the 2.6.23 kernel as we compare it
to the past Linux 2.6.22 kernel. We will have more on the Linux
2.6.23 kernel once we have tested it more extensively, but the
benchmarks we have ran so far include Quake 4, LAME encoding, Gzip
compression, and RAMspeed. If you missed it, among the features for
the Linux 2.6.23 kernel include the CFS process scheduler
(Completely Fair Scheduler), a variety of virtualization
improvements, on-demand read-ahead, and XFS and EXT4 file-system
improvements are among the interesting changes…”
