I (and presumably others) haven't
been able to upgrade my kernel past 2.6.38 because of this.
I'm running kernel 3.0 (Fedora 15's 2.6.40) on two boxes and I have not
seen slow downs or hangs. I use Firefox.
Well I'd expect it to be somewhat uncommon, or it wouldn't survive 3
kernel versions :) But at least 3 people have reported it, and for me at
least it's reliably reproducible enough to bisect, so I'm quite certain
there's something going on.
