    OK, I re-ran the tests on the same box using CURRENT as of this
    morning. There does not seem to be any large difference speed wise between
    RELENG_5 and HEAD, at least as it relates to the 3ware driver. Both
    RELENG_5 and HEAD are behind RELENG_4 and Linux 2.6.10 which are pretty
    equal in the tests that I did.

    I could not run the full NFS tests, and async nfs mounts are broken in
    RELENG_5 and HEAD.

    F=RELENG_5
    L=Linux 2.6.10
    H=FreeBSD Current Jan 31/2005
