Is this an AIX specific problem or do all/all SMP/all 4way computers 
have it ?

Is this a bug that needs to be addresse before release of final ?

Or would we just prominently warn people that the new release is 2x 
slower and advise upgrading only if they have powerful enough computers 
(system load < 0.5 during normal operation)?
