Just curious if anybody is running an ONTAP 8.2.x 7-mode release on a 2240, 3240 or comparable unit?   If so, was there a noticeable increase in cpu utilization and/or client response time following the upgrade to 8.2.x?

We are currently evaluating an 8.2.3 7-mode upgrade from 8.1.3.    On 8.1.3, we do see periods in which average processor utilization is in the 80-90% range.     We're told we may want to avoid upgrading those units to an 8.2 release as 8.2 requires an additional 10-20% cpu out of the gate.

Thanks,
Phil
