If you are testing openSUSE 11 beta releases, would you please do a
check on your hard drive cycles?

In order to answer your queston (Load_Cycle_Count variations as seen by
smartctl under B2 )
I decided to recompile the kernel as that is a fairly heavy loadwork.

Then you got wrong results: if the disk is busy, the disk doesn't "cycle". You have to test it under typical use, specially low usage.
