kswapd using large amounts of CPU time under heavy IO load is one problem 
that's been tracked down (the fix is in the aa1 kernel SUSE is using).  I 
have another problem with machines going really slow for no apparent reason 
that I still haven't fully tracked down.

For smaller machines it runs fine.
