Very nice to hear that! Thank you very much for running those tests!

Nevertheless, today (Jul 10th) an anonymous user posted a bug report
to Sourceforge BTS about a hang happening when opening a huge JPEG
file or when the swap space gets full. His compressed cache setup was
resizing on demand only (no page cache support). That looks like the
hang reported by Paolo Ciarrocchi when running mmap001 that I couldn't
reproduce so far.

The same behaviour as before.
