Thanks! :) I already have the patch applied and 2.1 it has been running
flawlessly for the last several days now. Honestly, 2.1 seems to now be
more stable than 2.0 -- 2.0 seems to be blowing up in oom situations where
2.1 seems to survive). I've had several hard freezes with 2.0.35 now
without any oopses, but they all seem to be related to oom conditions.
Also, all the employees in the building told me the mailserver felt a
zillion times faster when I put on 2.1, and I agree. I think we'll stick
with 2.1 now. :)
