Comment 47 for bug 574910

There is a set of new test kernels for x86_64, if anyone is interested I can build them for i386 as well

us-west-1 aki-06c59443
us-east-1 aki-c8b258a1
eu-west-1 aki-c0d4feb4
ap-southeast-1 aki-d13f4183

This kernel has so far been doing better for me. This does not mean you won't see some small load bumps occasionally as daemons wakeup or writeback caches are flushed. This may exhibit slightly different behavior than you would see under Hardy or Karmic as Lucid is a different kernel and has many changes under the hood.

Please report back what kind of loads are encountered.
