Any ideas what causes this sort of behavior?  I mean how does a program
doing something wrong internally (assuming no reads/writes to protected mem)
mess up the rest of the system?   Are we just talking about someone getting
stuck in a tight loop for a little bit (or an infinite loop) and that bogging
the system down?  Still seems a little strange.

BTW, I don't know if you can't talk about it, but no one who would know has
said if the scheduler is changed under 2.0 or not.  Well....?  :-)
