Dave,

I've been running SPECweb99 with this patch all weekend and have not 
been able to produce any kernel assertions at all.  I'm currently 
running RH kernel 2.6.9-5.EL.root and have been able to reproduce at 
will when setting /proc/net/ipv4/tcp_tso_win_divisor to 1, 2 or 4.

Let me know when you have something else ready to test.
