Hi Octavian,

Like Seth said this was very nice to install and run.  But I think I'm
doing something wrong.  I cloned the lkl/linux git tree into a 9G ext4
loopback file, both one mounted with lkl and one mounted as loopback.
The results were worse than I expected - loopback was 0m10.078s for
clone and 0m0.877s for rm -rf;  lkl was 5m5.625s for clone and 0m44.332s
for rm -rf.  I assume this has to do with the 100MB buffer and subsequent
thrashing?  How should I tune this to  make it perform better?

No crashes from this, though.

thanks,
-serge
