Upgrading Linux kernel from 2.6.18 to 2.6.19 and it's ramifications on Oracle 10g

Hi,

We use Oracle 10g via NFSv3 on our Linux servers(RHEL 4) 2.6.18.128.7.1 kernel. We would like to use the performance advantages gained by using a 2.6.19 kernel(bigger buffer sizes) for NFSv3 - 2.6.19 kernels allow for buffer sizes as big as 1M. My question is if we indeed do the kernel upgrade, will this have any ramifications that maybe harmful to us?

Regards and thanks

Howdy, Stranger!
