my last tests on patched (3.0.4 + migrate.c fix + vserver) kernel produce full cpu load
on dual 8-cores opterons like on this htop screenshot -> http://pluto.agmk.net/kernel/screen1.png
afaics all userspace applications usualy don't use more than half of physical memory
and so called "cache" on htop bar doesn't reach the 100%.

the patched kernel with disabled CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE (new thing in 2.6.38)
died at night, so now i'm going to disable also CONFIG_COMPACTION/MIGRATION in next
steps and stress this machine again...
