process_load and io_load results are averages of 6 runs.

Statistical significance in process_load performance (p=0.017), with mm1 
slower. The other changes did not show statistical significance, with trends 
as noted above.

note: these were done with the temporary fix for the reiserfs breakage but as 
far as I'm aware it shouldn't affect this test

Hardware: 1133MhzP3, 224Mb Ram, IDE-ATA100 5400rpm drive with io_load tested 
on same disk, reiserFS. Preempt=N for all kernels.
