Comment 84 for bug 985661

Hi Guy: Thanks for your attention to this one. No, this patch has not migrated to Ubuntu yet. At the upstream level (kernel.org) people have been testing the patch backported to the 3.2 series kernels. I think (but am not sure) that the patch will be reviewed for possible inclusion in kernel 3.2.24. After that it would eventually be included in an Ubuntu update (3.2.0-XX).

Quinta: A load of 15 on a 4 core system, is some other problem. I don't think this patch will fix your troubles.
