Just tried the v2.6.37-rc2-maverick from Ubuntu Mainline.

The load balancing ticks are down to 2 (in words, two) from 60 or so per second.
Ran it for a few minutes. M/c is less noisy and temperatures are down by a bit (1-2 deg), but that can be very well be within a margin of error.

I run VMWare player extensively and I could not find a kernel patch for
VMWare player for this version of the kernel and hence switched back to
the official 2.6.35-23. Once VMWare releases (officially or otherwise) a
patch for this version and 2.37 enters a stable state officially from
Ubuntu, I am going to upgrade to 2.37, but am holding off till it is
officially supported.
