Hi!

I don't see anything in dmesg. Everything appears to work as normal, 
except for the slowness. Which got a bit better upon renicing scsi_eh_11 
to 19 (not knowing whether its really safe, but it works for now).

Interrupts appear to be within usual range as well:

I never saw this with 2.6.36 or 2.7.37-rc3.

I am using a Delock PCMCIA eSATA adapter with Silicon Image controller 
from time to time. Yesterday evening for example. Maybe it has to do with 
removing it again. Well it got scsi11 for one of its port:

Any hints on what to try to get more information? I keep the ThinkPad T42 
running for a while to wait for some hints.

Thanks,
