Just for everyone's information...
The git performance issues (especially) on kernel.org has been very frustrating, obviously. We're putting a dedicated git server in place hopefully the week of February 5.

Thanks.
Hope it will have fast git-web face also.

For the hardware geeks out there, do you know what kind of machine it will be?

Sure... it's the DL380 G2 that used to be zeus.kernel.org. It's not ideal (in particular, I would have preferred a 64-bit machine), but it has the advantage that it's proven itself rock-solid over the years, it has all the hands-off management features, we have it, and it has 6 GB RAM.
As far as filesystem is concerned, we might decide to use this machine to test out XFS. Haven't made the formal decision yet.
