Thanks for all advices on this issure.
I do want to upgrade to a new version, but not sure if this will solve my problem. The current system is not stable. It hungs once a while when it runs a user app which frequently reads and writes files from and into a nfs mounted server. I did another test to run a program which kept allocating memory without releasing them back. After about 3.2 GB mem allocated, the kernel stopped allocating the mem, but it did not kill the program. However, the same version of kernel installed in a box with one processor, after running my test program, the kernel automatically killed the program when there is no more memory available to allocate.
Thanks,
wang
