That's a very very old kernel, I would suggest you upgrade to something
that has the reclaim rewrite Rik did to deal with large memory systems.
I think they're in RHEL6, but I'm sure Rik knows.
Also, since you're running this dinosaur, contact RHT, they're the only
ones that care about it -- but I guess you're going to get the same
suggestion.
