How can I ensure my TLB is patched correctly in my kernel? I see at this link they say its fixed in the kernel. But I think my system is still very much effected. In Vista I had to run a small program that would patch it everytime I restarted or woke up from sleep mode.

I'm losing at least 10-13% of my CPU with this flaw. If I had the cash I'd just replace it.. but that will just have to wait.

Anyone got ideas on Phenom TLB bug fix for Linux or how test to see if my system is already patched?

AMD Phenom 9550 quadcore..
