Hai....
Here is the AIM benchmark results for 2.5.44 kernel and 2.5.45 kernels.
Results shows 2.5.45 kernel performed little better in pages allocation(page_test), Sequential,Random writes (sync_disk_rw,
sync_dsik_wrt,sync_disk_cp), linking/unlinkg(link_test) and 2.5.44 kernel performed little better in directory
operation(dir_rtns_1).
Overall results look consistent.
