i moved away from Red Hat 2.4x kernels as they have an annoying tendency

I should have mentioned that every time I compare a 2.6 kernel with RHL
7.3 on this test:
hdparm -t /dev/hda
RHL is always faster. I was also running some other tests involving
bonnie{,++} where RHL was still looking good, then Google interevened.
Known problem.
It was a year or so ago, maybe it's fixed.
