So, after your findings I'm about to recommend sending to -stable
3 patches from net-2.6, with additional lowering of threshold_root
settings, but it would be nice if you could give it a try with
CONFIG_PREEMPT instead of CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE (if it doesn't break
your other apps!) It is expected to work this time...;-) Maybe a
bit slower.

Thanks,
Jarek P.
