rebootless updates? Yes please.

Just discovered ksplice (via slashdot). This is perfect. My only concern is the flow of updates stays strong. As I understand ksplice (from here), the ubuntu community fixes a bug and then the ksplice guys turn it into a a rebootless update.

How fast does /that/ process happen, and can I rely on it?

I’ll throw this on my ubuntu test server at work and play with it.

Thank you ksplice people!!!
