(Get the code!)
Good to hear that the system is more stable. Locking problems can be difficult to find as they frequently are affected by subtle differences in the speed and number of CPUs, etc. The other locking problem showed up on my system as an attempt to free DMA memory that had never been assigned. The traceback showed that the routines were being called out of order. No system freezes.
We will get to the poor performance later. Nearly all of the drivers show this problem, so it seems to be generic. Troy reproduced it yesterday, and I expect a fix soon.
