I think is fair to say that alan's tree tracks linus' rather than sync's with it...
it's also observable that there are a few things (from the mailing list traffic at least) in .9 that's perhaps shouldn't be merged into ac until linus has returned from vaction an examined the submitted patches/twiddled with it a bit himself...

I hope it stays that way for awhile. I get much better performance (subjective, don't know how to benchmark ~2-3x virtual desktop switching) than with any recent linus kernel. Even playing with a little 500M SQL database doesn't hinder the system anymore.
Thanks!

Alan,
I'm sorry if it was previously answered, but why your tree is currently not in sync with Linus's tree?
Regards,
Thiago

I've tried to come up with an idea to automatically benchmark user interactivity with the machine and have put this idea in the Linux-MM wiki.

If you have any comments on this proposed method or would like to volunteer for coding it, please add your comments in the wiki or respond by email ;)
regards,
Rik
