ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.0-test2/2.6.0-test2-mm1 - More CPU scheduler tweaks. - Some changes to the VM which are designed to further reduce the amount of writeout which happens off the tail of the page LRU. Some small benefits have been observed in the usual benchmarks. Needs careful testing. - Various other fixes from various people.
