:^()  As a fellow "victim" of the cache parity error messages, I would like to

:^()  What software is likely to cause them? When should I start to worry?
:^()  

I tried to get that information out of them, as soon it was explained to
me.  As far the rate goes, depending on the activity machine 10-20/week
is probably nothing to worry about, but 20 in a day should be something
that should be looked at.  I can see the support people wrangling over
this one (personally, they should never of turned it on - I think it will
cause them more harm then good, i.e. plethora of customers demanding CPU
swaps).

As far as why they are logged and in what circumstances, I could not get
an answer.  Maybe Marcus or Terry might be able to find out for us?
