So, my hotrodded 386 is now pushing 6.0b5.  Unfortunatly I toasted it 
pretty bad trying to move from 4.11 to 5.4, so it's a fresh install 
that I'm scrambling to get re-setup.

One thing I noticed in this debacle, when I booted under 5-stable, my 
SCSI card, AHA1 did not report as being stuck under the giant lock, 
yet it is under 6.0b5?  I'm hoping thats the cause of my throughput 
regression.  Under 4.11 I could sustain 1.4MB/sec writing to disc, 
5-Stable held at 1.2MB/sec, I'm now down at 800KB/sec with 6.0b5.  Are 
all the debug options disabled in beta 5, or are they going to stay 
until RC1?
