Good to hear that the system is more stable. Locking problems can be
difficult to find as they frequently are affected by subtle differences
in the speed and number of CPUs, etc. The other locking problem showed
up on my system as an attempt to free DMA memory that had never been
assigned. The traceback showed that the routines were being called out
of order. No system freezes.

We will get to the poor performance later. Nearly all of the drivers
show this problem, so it seems to be generic. Troy reproduced it
yesterday, and I expect a fix soon.
