Is anyone using 2.6.0 in production? I found this on some 2.6.0 performance data, and it
looks rather discouraging.

I have also noticed that the 2.5.3 server rpms actually use a slightly newer kernel than
the 2.6.0 set. By and large, we will use zfs underlying the OST.
Unless you have a strong technical reason for running 2.6, I would recommend sticking with
2.5.3 since that is the official maintenance branch at the moment.
