Fedora set it to 4k mainly to help javas performance and that was about it. Also, the inconsistencies you are experiencing with applications may be for the same reason. I am using a dual and it seemed to work fine after re-compiling a vanilla kernel. Another possibility is that Fedora uses there own asynchronous I/O patch, which may conflict with the new 2.6 kernels scheduler. My machine that worked: - 2x Athlon MP - 2GB Registered RAM - NVIDIA ... - Blah blah blah - ... These are all guesses...

I upgraded to FC2 the other night and was immediately struck by the poor interactive performance of the system. Audio (Ogg) played via rythmbox skips and stutters during I/O, the GUI pauses for "long" periods (where long is > 0), etc. I just built a stock 2.6.6 kernel using the i686 smp config file shipped with FC2, and performance is much improved. (I'm typing this, listening to music, and doing a make clean on the kernel tree with no stuttering.) Have others seen this issue? Is it known? A search of this list didn't turn up anything that clearly matched, nor did a search of RH Bugzilla.
