Hi,
Here are the results of comparison of kernel 2.5.51 and 2.5.52 on TIObench.
key findings.

-------------------------------------------------------------
test                                    2.5.52 (as compared to
                                        2.5.51) APPRXIMATE % change
-------------------------------------------------------------
rate (megabytes per second)     5% decrease
CPU % utilization                       5% decrease
Average Latency                 less than 2% increase
Maximum latency                 15 % increase          
CPU efficiency                  less than 2% increase
-------------------------------------------------------------

Unit information
================
File size = megabytes
Blk Size  = bytes
Rate      = megabytes per second
CPU%      = percentage of CPU used during the test
Latency   = milliseconds
Lat%      = percent of requests that took longer than X seconds
CPU Eff   = Rate divided by CPU% - throughput per cpu load
