Subject: [ANNOUNCE] 2.4.19-pre5-ac3-s45
Date:	 Fri, 12 Apr 2002 12:50:37 +0400

I recently updated -stingr series kernel to version s45. This will add a
couple of wli's hashes, parts from -aa tree, large (>2G) file support to
smbfs, and Ingo's irqrate.

This is currently installed on my proxy server and now I have CPU usage
reduced from excessive to reasonable value (50%). I believe credits for this
improvements should go to wli.

=== Getting it from hostme.bitkeeper.com.
