Hi, from a longtime user perspective: I'm using hardened on desktops since about three or four years now and I can't remember any issues that were caused by the toolchain. Performance loss is imho negligible even on low powered systems like an atom netbook or my Raspberry Pi (I'm not saying, that there is none, but it's nothing dramatical). RBAC, SELinux or a PaX enabled kernel is a completly other matter (in terms of breakage and usability) but this thread was about toolchain not kernel, wasn't it? WKR Hinnerk
